Eva PenzeyMoog is a user experience and safety designer and founder of The Inclusive Safety Project. Before joining the tech field, she worked in the nonprofit space and volunteered as a domestic violence educator and rape crisis counselor. Her safety design work brings together her expertise in domestic violence and tech, helping technologists understand how their creations facilitate interpersonal harm and how to prevent it through intentionally prioritizing the most vulnerable users. She works to make designing for safety the norm and to inspire fellow technologists to transform the tech industry into one that prioritizes safety, justice, and compassion.
