Kursat Ozenc portrait

I’m Kursat Ozenc, a design leader, author, and educator focused on creating human-centered solutions for business, AI, and emerging technology. My work bridges strategy and execution, helping organizations design intuitive, scalable systems that drive both user engagement and business outcomes.

Currently, I’m a Design Lead at JP Morgan Chase, where I work at the intersection of design, technology, and enterprise solutions, shaping the future of digital products and services. I also teach at Stanford d.school, where I guide students and professionals in applying design thinking to complex business and technology challenges.

I hold a PhD in Design from Carnegie Mellon University, with expertise in interaction design, systems thinking, and AI-driven experiences. My approach is hands-on and iterative, combining deep research with rapid prototyping to bring new ideas to life.

Beyond my work in industry and academia, I write and speak about design’s role in shaping emerging technologies, from AI-powered workflows to enterprise-scale innovation. I thrive on tackling big, ambiguous problems, designing for real-world impact, and building products that make technology more seamless, intelligent, and human.
