About Me

Jenny Zhou

Research Leader

About

As a research manager, I’m passionate about building interdisciplinary research teams, positioning research at the center of product strategy, and nurturing cultures of curiosity & collaboration.

I currently lead a team of mixed methods researchers at Pinterest, a global tech company. I joined tech after recovering from my previous career in the education sector, where I worked in insights & services design functions at multiple national school networks.

My favorite book is The Little Prince for its ability to capture child-like wonder, something I hope to never forget. I’ve dabbled in video storytelling (and know a thing or two about crypto and web3), once took 2 years off to focus on meditation & somatic practices, and will occasionally nerd out about general semantics and economics (two topics that taught me how to think and talk about the world).
