About

I’m Celeste Côté, an Ottawa-based product manager focused on accessible, human-centred digital experiences. I work where clarity, systems thinking, and thoughtful design meet.

My work emphasizes clear structure, inclusive design, and content-led experiences — especially in complex or constraint-heavy environments. I care deeply about accessibility, longevity, and making things that work for real people.
