Emily Bauman

About me 👋

• My name is Emily Bauman and I am a Senior Product Designer supporting the ModelOps and AI-Powered Stages. This means I support AI teams as they need me, and am not dedicated to a specific team!
  • My current focus is improving the UX of Duo Chat and GitLab Duo with Amazon Q.
• Previously I worked with the Environments Team, Release Team and the Growth Activation, Conversion and Expansion Teams.

My working style

• I work in Eastern Standard Time / Eastern Daylight Time and I'm usually online somewhere between 8:00am to 8:30am.
• I keep track of all my Weekly Tasks in this folder.
• I try to keep all meetings focused in chunks in my mornings, and leave my afternoons for deep work. Late meetings put me in waiting mode all day.
• I'm always open for a Coffee Chat. ☕

History as a Product Designer

• I started off my creative career as a part time SFX and Makeup Artist for events while I was finishing my degree.
• I began my Product Design journey at IBM, working on their Internal Website and later Supply Chain Software.
• I worked at Capital One before GitLab, with a focus on Customer Growth and Acquisitions.

• My personality type is ENFJ-T - The Protagonist.
• I am a cat mom to two blind kitties named Harriet and Claude.
• My main hobbies include travelling, skiing, camping and anything else outdoor related.
