👋 Hello, I’m Tzuyi, a product designer in NYC. With 6 years of experience creating consumer products from 0–1–x, I design to foster authentic human connections rooted in real human happiness.

Currently, I’m a founding designer at Dotarazzi, a startup reimagining how people connect and access resources nearby from 0–1. Previously, I led design on Grindr’s Growth Team for Grindr Web, Grindr Livestream, and more, and worked on premium user growth and engagement.
