Tess Dixon is a Design Manager at Condé Nast who’s very into DesignOps (and ops of any kind, really), documentation, remote-first culture, getting things organized, and supporting her team with the best environment possible. With an 18-year career in tech so far including a stint as Director of Support at Tumblr, she transitioned to the design world in 2019 and has spent the last couple of years learning about and practicing DesignOps.

She’s a city mouse but enjoys taking day trips in the country to hike, visit historical sites, and pick through antiques. Tess lives in Richmond, Virginia’s Church Hill neighborhood with her partner and two kids.
