🌟 Hello from San Francisco 🌟
I’m Lily, a product designer (apps and UX) who went to arts school. I packed my life into two suitcases and moved to the heart of Silicon Valley. With no connections, I hustled and broke into tech. My story has been featured in Apple News and Business Insider. Subscribe for tech, interviewing, and personal development advice.
