# Jenny Wen

## Profile
**Head of Design at [[entity-org-anthropic-d5]]** (formerly of [[entity-product-figma-d5]]). Public commentator on the evolution of designer workflows in the AI era.

## Role in This Source
The primary external authority cited for [[claim-designer-time-reallocation]]: she publicly framed the shift in designer workflows, noting that time spent on mockups will drop from **two-thirds (66%) to one-third (33%)** of a designer's day, freeing the rest for upstream strategic work — brand, taste, product direction. See also [[contrarian-designers-not-replaced]].

## Why It Matters
Her dual lineage (Figma → Anthropic) makes her a uniquely credible voice on whether AI tools threaten designers or *empower* them. The speaker uses her framing to anchor the contrarian position that designers are not replaced — they are *reallocated*.
