Kayla Goodison

Product Designer
I fight for the users — and build the systems that make great experiences scalable.
I'm Kayla: a designer with an unusual path from music composition to product design. That creative background taught me something crucial about both fields—the best solutions happen when you truly understand your "performers" (whether that's musicians or users) and create systems that let everyone do their best work.
Over the past 3+ years at a fast-growing transportation tech company, I've gotten really good at the behind-the-scenes work that makes design teams more effective: building our first comprehensive design system (reducing dev time by 66%), mentoring teammates, and turning user research into features that actually solve problems. I love the projects that seem impossible at first—like unifying workflows for completely different user groups or forecasting $3M+ in productivity improvements through better design.
