About Yimeng Yao
Visual/UX Designer at Amazon
Hiii, I’m Yimeng, a Visual/UX designer at Amazon. I'm working on AI-driven product experiences and design systems. I’m particularly interested in how AI can shape more intuitive, human-centered interfaces.
Before Amazon, I worked on AI creative tools and growth products at ByteDance and TikTok. I also studied Human-Computer Interaction at Carnegie Mellon University and Graphic Design at the Rhode Island School of Design, where I explored the intersection of design, visual craft, learning, and emerging technologies.
As a mentor, I envision us growing together, sharing different opinions, and clarifying stories.
