A Pinterest externship investigating how Gen Z uses the platform, focusing on survey-based consumer insights for advertiser-facing storytelling.
The project surveyed Gen Z Pinterest users and analyzed responses to surface nonobvious usage patterns. It used a Jobs-to-be-Done survey design and empirical analysis of responses collected from at least 30 participants. The work produced a single evidence-backed insight presented as an advertiser-facing pitch.
I designed and deployed a Jobs-to-be-Done survey to Gen Z participants, analyzed the responses, and packaged one clear insight into an advertiser-facing pitch.
