Bio

As president of Catbird Content, Torrey Podmajersky helps teams solve business and customer problems using UX and content. She has written inclusive and accessible consumer and professional experiences for Google, OfferUp, and Microsoft.
Torrey's high-intensity speaking style was refined in the crucible of teaching chemistry, but even her most engaging lectures no longer require eye protection. Torrey speaks, teaches, and mentors UX folks worldwide, including at the University of Washington Information School.
Torrey has a Bachelor's degree in Physics from UW, a Masters degree in Curriculum & Instruction from Seattle University, and has done freelance fiction writing, home health care work, marketing communications, and taught high-school science for nine years. Torrey's range of experience helps her empathize with a broad range of people, and she brings that empathy to her products and her teams.
