A Pinterest externship studying how Gen Z discovers and uses content on the platform, with a consumer-research focus for advertiser-facing insights.
This externship investigated how Gen Z uses Pinterest by designing and running a Jobs-to-be-Done survey and analyzing responses from real users. The work synthesized qualitative and quantitative responses into an evidence-backed insight and packaged that insight into an advertiser-facing pitch and a recorded presentation.

I produced a complete JTBD survey package: research goals, a mapping of Pinterest surfaces and Gen Z signals, a set of final survey questions in Google Docs, and a live Google Form link.
