Hi, I'm Mandy! I'm a Product Designer at SoFi (SF) and a recent grad from UC San Diego with a B.S. in Cognitive Science.


In my early career, I've dabbled in experiential design at an agency, human-computer interaction research, and now product design for fintech. I also run my small sticker business, @littlemandyart, on the side.

So why product design? I appreciate high-quality products and want to spread more of them into the world. Within design, I'm particularly passionate about visual craft and product strategy.

Outside of work, you can find me playing tennis and pickleball, making lattes, and catching live music.
