Jaireh Tecarro, Angel Investor

I am a Senior Designer with 15 years of experience designing consumer products. I'm currently designing the Siri experience at Apple. I love solving design problems at the edge of what is just now possible whether that be through new user behaviors, new technology, or new ideas. I am lucky to have been part of the founding teams building 0-to-1 products that integrate both software and hardware including Apple HomePod & HomePod Mini, Jambox and Up by Jawbone, and the Nook by Barnes and Noble. I enjoy collaboration with people from various disciplines because surprising and interesting solutions tend to come out of this. I've been a product designer, user interface designer, interaction designer, and visual designer through different roles and I enjoy multifaceted challenges that use one or more of these skills. I am also an active angel investor, investing in founders before their ideas are obvious. I invest in founders with contrarian ideas that are ultimately proven right. The more audacious the idea, the better.
