Irene Au, Partner Khosla Ventures

Expertise: leading teams, driving innovation, scaling products

I am an operating partner at Khosla Ventures, working with portfolio companies to make their design and UX great. I build high performing teams, establish design practices, mentor and grow the next generation of great designers, and design interfaces and experiences. I drive strategic discussions at the highest levels of companies, focusing first on user needs to inspire product innovation.

As former head of the design teams for Google and Yahoo, I have been one of the biggest employers of UX talent. I have led design and user experience at Google, Yahoo, Netscape, and Udacity.
