Shawn Sprockett

About

Shawn's work has spanned a wide breadth of industries over the last 20 years, from Condé Nast to Google, Apple, and Airbnb. He trained under legendary designers, like Milton Glaser and Stefan Sagmeister. And he's also been a part of big business transformations like IBM's implementation of design-thinking at scale, Airbnb’s rapid growth from 24 designers to a design team of 400+, and Meta's product-minded forays into augmented and virtual reality. Shawn is a senior adjunct professor at the California College of Arts in the graduate Interaction Design program—among the top interaction design programs in the world. He has several patents to his name for novel interaction design and recently co-authored new research with colleagues at Cambridge, Duke, and Vanderbilt universities on value perceptions in AI-made art, which has had implications for branding and positioning AI startups.
