About

Michelle Hessel is wearing some weird-looking sunglasses with mirrors on it.

Oi, I'm Michelle.

I am a NY-based Brazilian Product Designer and Mixed Media Artist working at the intersection of design, storytelling and technology.

My work has been featured by the Interaction Design Association, The Economist, VICE Media, and Communication Arts. I have had the honor of participating in events in the USA, Europe, and Latin America.

I am currently a Lead Product Designer at Peloton. You can read about one of my projects in this interview.

In my free time, I like to pretend my cat is a dog and to get my hands dirty with clay.
