Torrie Real

Public health trained. Design obsessed. Systems thinker.

I came to product design through public health—where I learned that the best interventions work within existing systems, not around them. That perspective shapes everything I design: tools for caregivers managing burnout, platforms helping patients navigate complex care, and products that treat users as whole people.

Based in St. Louis. Currently focused on healthcare and mission-driven product design.
