Hi! I'm Lina 👋.

I'm a product designer making AI feel honest — something people can question, edit, and trust. Right now I'm designing at Idensia and PokeBot, while finishing my degree at NYU and a UI/UX certificate at Stanford.

A little about me.

My work keeps circling the same question: how do you make an intelligent system feel honest — something a person can question, edit, and rely on? I'm happiest where AI meets a real human decision — a first onboarding, a recommendation, a moment of doubt.

I move between user research, interaction design, and content strategy. I prototype to learn fast, test to find the truth, and design the explanations that turn a black box into a tool people trust. My background spans AI, EdTech, BrandTech, and B2B SaaS, plus a creator's eye for storytelling from running food-and-travel content on REDnote and Instagram.

Outside of design, I'm usually chasing good food around New York and writing about it. I care about measurable impact — for the person on the screen and the business behind it.
