YANG YOU
/ product designer
I’m a generalist that enjoys tackling a problem from start to finish, from initial user research to hi-fi prototyping. My favorite moments are uncovering the “unknown unknowns” about other humans and working with engineers to bring a solution to life, down to the last pixel and micro-interaction. I thrive in ambiguous problem spaces and in bringing clarity to chaos.
Currently focusing on crypto + web3.
Anchorage is a digital asset platform for institutions. As the first in-house designer, I built the design system and designed cross-platform experiences in transacting, lending, governance, and more. Experienced growth from 30 to 150 employees.

Capital One has an enterprise risk management platform that allows underwriters & asset managers to track their portfolio of loans. I designed the navigation and team management experience.

Before I formally pursued design, I scribbled down my ideas for improving the data analytics platform that I was writing queries in. I shared them with my team and was surprised at the power of persuasion that some playful illustrations could have in the corporate consulting world. Since then, I’ve used the tablet and stylus for sketch-noting and personal thought-organizing. An advocate for creative storytelling, I believe that hand-drawn images in organic form can have a powerful effect on elevating messages.
