Amanda Geisinger

Amanda is an Emmy winning Director of User Experience and Product Design and has spent her career forming and shaping the digital landscape of the American media industry. She and her all-star teams have successfully led mainstream television, entertainment, and news organizations through the ever evolving technology space by crafting the products and processes that shape both industry standards and the daily experiences of hundreds of millions of users.  

She nourishes her soul with a daily personal practice of cartoon making that captures the small, delightful moments and everyday kindnesses that she encounters on the streets of New York City, where she lives. Her favorite color is rainbow, her favorite shape is DEFINITELY a circle, and she is oddly but shamelessly passionate about the visual properties of light.

Her aspiration is to be a source of light herself by validating the reality of the profound suffering of severe mental illness and helping all people see the awe-inspiring beauty in the world and in themselves.
