I'm so excited to share that I'll be joining the team at Zucca as a UI/UX Design Intern for Summer 2026! Zucca is a purpose-built, AI-powered operating system for CPG, led by founders Karen Huh and Jesse Guzman. The company's mission is to leverage emerging technology to streamline food and beverage development, revolutionizing the speed and clarity with which brands move from concept to consumer. It’s truly a dream opportunity to work at a growing Seattle startup with such a brilliant team. I want to thank Emi Knight, as well as Jesse Guzman, for their kindness and support throughout the recruitment process. I also want to extend my gratitude to professor Vivienne Long, for bringing Karen to our class and introducing me to Zucca. I couldn't have imagined a better opportunity for my design and entrepreneurship background, and I feel very lucky to have this role!
