Good design can change the world, and now I see it as my tool to help leave the world a better place than I found it.

Here are some fun things about me

I’m a tactile person and I have found a lot of joy in ceramics.

As a cliché millennial, I love my pup, Buckley.

I am an adventurous, but unrefined eater. I have never met a food that I have disliked.

I used to work in architecture

✨ The reviews are in

  • "Tierney is an exemplary employee who embodies our five company values with her daily actions and attitude. She demonstrates the first value, "Be Transparent," through her exceptional communication skills. She actively seeks clarity and asks thoughtful questions that often lead to changes in our implementation strategies. When those changes are made, Tierney never displays an ego or says, "I told you so." Tierney also embodies the second value, "Be Human," by displaying compassion towards others. In situations where we may be commenting negatively on a user interview or feedback from another team, she always takes a positive perspective and offers a compassionate viewpoint. She views the world through a lens of positivity, which is an innate part of her personality. The third value, "Be an Owner," is something that Tierney personifies. She takes ownership of her work and has the ability to distill desired outcomes into usable and beautiful user experiences. Her talent for creating designs at lightning speed is remarkable, and she always keeps up with feedback from engineering. She updates designs on-the-fly based on feedback, even before anyone tells her what needs to be done. Tierney's commitment to the fourth value, "Be Creative and Commit," is evident in her daily work. She is always present in the engineering mob room, ensuring that her designs are translated perfectly into our code. She takes the extra effort to ensure that the designs look good on mobile and desktop and never cuts corners. She is always willing to collaborate and is a valuable team player. Finally, Tierney embodies the fifth value, "Be You," in her unique way. She is the heart of our team, bringing positive energy and support to everyone around her. She knows how to break the tension with a supportive comment or a suggestion for a quick round of "PPX Cribs." Tierney's love for her pup Buckley and her LA adventures is infectious, and we love hearing about them during our team meetings. In summary, Tierney is a true asset to our team and embodies our company values every day. She is an exceptional communicator, a compassionate team player, a talented designer, and a positive force within our team. We are grateful to have her on our team and appreciate all that she brings to our company. "

    this was a nomination for the Golden Cart award, so it highlights SamCart’s values.

  • "Tierney is one of the most kind, thoughtful, and diligent people I've ever had the joy of working with. Even with all the amazing designs she's put out with SUSHI (SamCart's Design System), the redesign project, and her work on PPX (the post purchase experience team), she is nothing but humble and focused on lifting up those around her. That positive impact goes far beyond her official duties, as she puts in just as much as part of the Culture Squad and on additional initiatives with in ProdEng. My own experience working at SamCart has benefited immensely from Tierney's uplifting presence, and I'm sure many others can say the same."

    Olivia Isaacs, Senior Software Engineer

  • "Tierney sets a high standard of excellence for design on our team and is a great role model for cross functional collaboration with product and engineering. We have heard multiple compliments from her team about her dedication and creativity to PPX (the post purchase experience team). She has been instrumental in helping move our design initiatives forward, such as her contributions to Sushi (SamCart's Design System), her templates for user testing plans, and helping to shed light into the design process. Oh, and I almost forgot…as our culture ambassador, she’s always planning creative events for our "design team! Thanks Tierney!!

    Jessica Lin, Director of Product Design

  • "Tierney is not just a talented designer, but a thoughtful and collaborative co-worker that really makes you think. She listens before speaking her mind and her ideas are well thought out, smart and insightful. Working alongside her on complex digital experiences, Tierney thinks about the whole product and brand, as well as the minute details. Any product team is lucky to have her!"
