Hi I’m Tatiana

I'm currently a Service Design Lead at Accenture Song's Design and Digital Products practice (formerly Fjord), where I lead strategic work across industries, from consumer products to autonomotive, government, ultilities and beyond. Over the last 10 years, I've worked in Shanghai, Helsinki, Beirut, LA, and I currently live and work in San Francisco, helping organizations navigate complexity through product and service design.

I founded Agreeable Futures to focus on futures design and unpacking social and technological trends. My design explorations have been featured on Designboom, Design Indaba, Adobe, and Near Future Laboratory. I've also built and scaled IxDA chapters in Beirut and Los Angeles, co-organized Beirut Design Week, and teach and speak internationally about design and foresight.

Testimonials

Tatiana plays a critical role in delivering a world class experience to our executive level clients at (redacted). We are operating in a high stakes environment at an elevation in the firm we haven't ascended to; because of Tatiana's thoughtful design, extreme patience, and ability to reconcile perspectives across disciplines (both inside Accenture and inside (redacted)) we have been invited to engage even higher in the organization. For the first time, the account will get to engage directly with the C-suite. Not everyone can do this; Tatiana can.
