Joshua Martens
Joshua MartensDesignerI grew up in a small farming community on a Native American reservation in Montana. Since then, I’ve lived in Seattle, San Francisco, New York, the Netherlands, Belgium, and currently Spain. My exposure to different cultures and ways of life has been foundational to who I am and the greatest driver to my inspiration and endless curiosity.ContactLinkedIn Product Designer.
For 15 years I've designed software end to end, from the flow to the interface to the prototype. I led design at Tomorrow (acquired by Ethos, NASDAQ: LIFE), helped Hagerty (NYSE: HGTY) launch online auctions, and was a managing partner at Beginner, a venture studio whose clients included Dior and 1-800-Flowers. Now I'm co-founder and CPO of Magnitude.
