Jenny Yang Yi
YGS 2016
Cornell University + Harvard University
Product manager @ Red Hat AI, designer + builder + tinkerer
Jenny came to Young Guns learning to observe the world closely and understand how things work. That habit stayed with her. After studying architecture at Cornell, she continued at the Harvard Graduate School of Design and moved into enterprise AI. She now leads platform and user experience strategy for generative AI products at Red Hat, helping organizations understand what AI can and cannot do while designing experiences that bridge that gap. She was also the sole designer at a startup that was later acquired.
“YGS taught me how to seek out new perspectives and translate them into a story expressed through art. That's still exactly what I do every day.”
