Head of Product Design & Research at Pinhome
I’ve mentored designers, researchers, and UX writers across startups from seed to Series C, many of whom have gone on to work at notable companies locally and abroad. I previously worked internationally in FAANG and now focus on sharing practical experience across product, design, and research — especially around collaboration, decision-making, and growth. You don’t need to be a designer to reach out; PMs, founders, and business leaders are welcome. If you’re navigating career growth, leadership, or building better products with design and research, I’m happy to help and exchange perspectives.
“Hi Vina, Thank you so much for today’s discussion on how I can position myself as a Design Consultant. Your insights were genuinely eye-opening and gave me a lot of clarity on focusing more on outcomes, value, and strategy not just design execution. I’m really excited to apply the key points we discussed around positioning, communication, and building credibility.”
“Vina is a great mentor and provided valuable insights on my resume and portfolio.”
“I had a great experience being mentored by Kak Vina. She’s detailed, transparent, and gives constructive, critical feedback. She helped me improve my portfolio and resume while also sharing insights about career progression. She’s very friendly and easy to talk to. I’d definitely recommend Kak Vina to anyone seeking guidance on portfolio and resume improvement.”
