Hello there!

I'm Yuqi, a product designer worked in Shanghai, New York, and now based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Currently, I work at Bold, where I focus on growth, funnel optimization, and integrating GenAI features into career tools serving millions of job seekers, with a career highlight that earned multiple design patents.

With an education background in industrial and architectural design from Columbia University, I bring a rigorous systems-thinking approach to crafting thoughtful experiences and solving complex challenges.

I believe great design evokes meaningful responses—and brings life to ideas✨

Outside of work, I enjoy hosting tea tastings with self-made ceramic cups and exploring new knitting patterns. I cherish every "breadcrumb" of beauty life has to offer.
