Hi! My name is Patrick Dugan and I lead the advertising and monetization design team at Quora.
I previously worked at Nextdoor and Google and was a member of the Designer Fund's professional development program, Bridge.
I live in San Francisco and attended the University of Washington in Seattle where I studied Human Computer Interaction.
I enjoy running, camping, writing, listening to records, and working on my Harley.
