Back to home

Hello, I’mCoco Yin.

I design clear, human experiences for care and learning.

I’m a contract UI/UX Designer at TAMMIRA and an Interaction Design student at ArtCenter, graduating in December 2027. I connect research, interaction design, and implementation to make complex workflows easier to use.

I also created and launched Conomi, a piano-practice app. Co-founding Tune Art & Piano Academy keeps my work grounded in how people learn, practice, and build confidence.
