Hi! I am Andrea Yang-Yanez,
a product designer who thinks in systems, not just screens.
I'm a product designer with 5+ years of experience building 0-to-1 financial experiences where trust and clarity are everything. I think in systems, designing for the full user ecosystem and creating scalable solutions that help people make confident decisions in the products they rely on.
