Leslie Predy

DESIGNER, RESEARCHER, AND MAKER 

I work at Zendesk on conversational messaging platforms. Over the past decade, I've designed tools and frameworks for developers to extend Shopify, cutting edge 3D modelling mobile apps and digital manufacturing software at Autodesk, and medical simulations and teaching tools at Invivo. In my spare time, I build weird digital things.
