002 - Industrial Design, UX Bootcamps, and Third Culture Identity with Yaya Wang of Adobe

Today I’m talking to Yaya Ya-Ting Wang.-Yaya started out her design career studying Industrial & Interaction Design at Syracuse University. Then, after completing a 3-month design bootcamp, she began her product design journey at Conde Nast, a global media company and home to iconic brands such as Vogue, The New Yorker, and more. And now, she’s working at Adobe as a Senior Product Designer on the Adobe Acrobat Web Team.-During our conversation, what truly resonated with me was our conversation about having a third-culture identity. Yaya shared her own way to resolve this and shared valuable tips for anybody who’s struggling to cope with a third-culture identity. This is a conversation I truly enjoyed, and there were lots of laughs along the way. Without further ado, here’s my conversation with Yaya Ya-Ting Wang.===Highlights:⭐ Industrial design to UX Design⭐ Will you recommend people to go to design bootcamp?⭐ Day-to-day as a Senior Product Designer at Adobe⭐ Managing a full time + freelance⭐ Having a third-culture identity===Not Just Pixels is a student-led UX Design podcast that strives to help you grow as a designer and get that next design internship or job.
