Hey, nice to meet you!

I’m Brenda Yu, a multidisciplinary designer passionate about crafting intuitive, user-centered digital products that solve real problems and create meaningful experiences.

I am a junior at Carnegie Mellon University studying Information Systems and Human Computer Interaction with minors in Product Management and Architecture. With hands-on experience in UX research, product design, and cross-functional collaboration, I thrive at the intersection of creativity and strategy.

Always eager to learn and grow, I’m excited to connect with fellow designers, product managers, and innovators!

A Little More About Me

The things that inspire me, energize me, and make life meaningful.

Ultimate Foodie

I’m a passionate foodie who’s always on the hunt for new cuisines and hidden gem restaurants—especially when I can share the experience with friends.

Creative at Heart

Whether it’s painting, baking, or diving into a new DIY project, I love exploring creative hobbies that keep my hands (and mind) busy.

Always Exploring

I rarely stay in one place for long. Instead, I love discovering new cultures and landscapes. My favorite destination so far? Japan!

Strong Body, Clear Mind

From swimming to lifting weights, staying active is a big part of my lifestyle. It keeps me grounded, focused, and energized.

Forever Dog Person

I share my life with two amazing dogs who keep things joyful, chaotic, and full of cuddles. They’re the best part of my daily routine.
