Hi, I'm Yina

a Product Designer

My background in architecture shaped how I approach product design: through systems thinking. I look at how structure, constraints, and human behavior interact to shape digital experiences.

From Architecture to Product Design

UC Berkeley

Foundational design education focusing on spatial relationships and structural integrity.

Licensed Architect

Led complex projects in CA, mastering

technical constraints and user-centric

environments.

Product & AI

Synthesizing design thinking with emerging technology to build digital products at scale.

I love creating things.

Whether it's physical spaces or digital ecosystems, I'm passionate about the "how" behind products. Currently co-creating D2C products and managing community group sales in the vibrant Dogpatch, SF.
