About Me

Hi, I’m Yinyin Zhou, a former finance professional who found a new passion in design and technology. While working in accounting and finance, I gradually discovered that my greatest satisfaction came not from the numbers themselves, but from finding creative solutions to challenges.That’s what led me to the world of interaction design, where I now focus on creating user-friendly, meaningful experiences.

I'm currently studying at the School of Visual Arts, where I'm learning to merge creative thinking with practical design to build products that simplify and enhance everyday life. With a background in finance, I bring a strategic and analytical approach to problem-solving, while my passion for design drives me to create intuitive, user-centered digital experiences.

This unique blend of logic and creativity allows me to approach challenges from multiple angles. I'm eager to contribute to a dynamic design team, apply my skills in real-world projects, and continue learning from industry professionals.
