About Yalu Ye

UX Design Manager at Chegg

I am an SF-based UX designer who's eager to tackle complexity and contribute my design thinking and skills to making a meaningful impact on the world. I like to think about the big picture, craft a holistic experience, as well as zoom in on specific interactions and pixel-perfect design. I enjoy mentoring aspiring designers and growing effective, engaged and empowered teams. I’ve worked with clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies to small startups on enterprise-centric or consumer-facing products.

With a strong growth mindset, I always enjoy reflecting and learning. I am a self-starter who embraces perspectives, harnesses ambiguity, and strives in challenges. I believe collaboration and diversity make an awesome team that delivers great products and outcomes. When I am not working, you will find me trekking in the wilderness or running with my dog in the neighborhood.

What mentees say

“I really enjoyed and learned a lot from my session with Yalu. She provided great feedback around UX/UI design professional development and I learned a lot from hearing about her design journey. Yalu is very patient and thoughtful and I felt comfortable sharing my experience and questions with her. I would definitely recommend Yalu as a mentor!”
Rebecca Rafferty, Brand and Web Designer at Rebecca Rafferty Design LLC

“Yalu is professional and friendly. The session with her was very helpful. She showed me how to connect my past experience with UX and explained to me what holistic design is and how to do it. I'd definitely love to talk to her again to hear her opinions about my projects.”
Rachel Gao, UX Design student at St. John's University, Washington State University

“I came to Ms. Ye seeking guidance regarding how I could successfully transition into the UX field from my current work and left the meeting feeling better assured that I'm on the right path. I started a case study of my own recently, and though she is not a UX researcher, she still was kind enough to review a survey I arranged for my study and offered advice on how to improve it.”
