Amy Lima is a first-generation Brazilian-American product designer currently working at Amp, a live radio app by Amazon Music. Her global footprint growing up between cultures and across continents instilled in her from childhood an innate appreciation for diverse perspectives and fascination for the human experience. To honor these values, her design philosophy is deeply rooted in ethical and inclusive design practices, and her work focuses on fostering community and social expression. Beyond the digital products she’s shipped, Amy is an active member of the design community and is often found hosting panels, giving conference talks, and writing articles on her experience pivoting into design from the music industry as a minority in tech. Her design advocacy work is centered on championing early-career and underrepresented folks, helping them break into the field and demystifying an often gate-kept industry.
