Jenny Liu Zhang is an American digital designer :)

Summer 2026

I'm currently traveling around the country, taking a partial sabbatical to recover my health. This year has been busy: I finished v1 of “Small Hassles Court,” a playful online conflict resolution game through my organization Plot Twisters, supported by Metagov. I'm also working as a Staff Product Designer at Monarch, slicing my Masters thesis into essays about convivial tech futures, and building this website.

I’m based in Cleveland, Ohio with my dog Lila and cat Cali.

catching light

is so exciting

I like drawing

I like writing

earth is my house

I explore it often

I learn a lot

when I feel foreign

ohio is my bedroom

my creative heart

it's where I stay

to make my art

and solve design problems

and ask research questions

and cuddle my pets

and sleep in depression

and call my mom

and release perfection

and exercise

and process reflections

when imagining futures

and collecting pasts

time passes slow

yet really fast

working with friends

on plan As and Bs

through each experience

I'm becoming me

sometimes I'm wrong

sometimes I'm crinkled

but I always try

to find life's twinkle
