👋 About Me
The person behind the pixels
Designer by trade, over-thinker by nature. Here's a bit about who I am when I'm not in Figma.
Open to collaborate
Open to partnerships

Who I am
Shakira Yanti
Lead Product Designer
Self-taught designer with a specialist certificate in Design Science from Harvard Business School Online. I've spent years building products across Astro, Ernst & Young, Medal.tv, Topsort, and Awesomic: different industries, different scales, same obsession. Right now I'm consulting for VoyceMe, leading design across a webcomics platform, a story creation tool, and a generative AI product.
I care about craft and I care about shipping. My workflow is AI-augmented, my Figma files are over-organised, and I genuinely enjoy talking to engineers. I move fast, I think in systems, and I have strong opinions about spacing.
