Profile: https://flows.cv/hillarytran

👩🏻‍🎨 I come from a product design & psychology background, and I really enjoy the 0->1 of building, especially being able to shape ideas, systems, and experiences from scratch.
🤹🏻‍♀️ I have worked across design, product, and strategy. I'm drawn to human-centered & design-forward companies that are creating inclusive tech for social impact and/or products people find meaningful.
💃🏻 I love getting to know people from diverse backgrounds and walks of life - feel free to reach out for a chat!
