Summary
Eva Peng is a Design Technologist with 11 years of experience blending UI engineering, computational design, and product-focused research across firms like Smart Design, The New York Times, and frog. She bridges creative systems thinking and hands-on implementation, from parametric 3D workflows and digital fabrication to production web UIs and Rails-backed urban planning tools. Trained in Architecture and HCI with an MIS master’s from Carnegie Mellon, she moves fluidly between visual design, scripting (Python/Grasshopper), and front-end engineering. At Nike she led 3D digital creation efforts, and at CMU she taught generative modeling—an unusual mix that surfaces both aesthetic rigor and technical depth. Colleagues rely on her to turn exploratory prototypes into usable, developer-ready products that respect craft and real-world constraints. Based in New York, she approaches problems by "thinking and tinkering," favoring iterative discovery over assumptions.
