Jiaqi Gu

Product Designer

Hi, I'm Jiaqi — a Product Designer with backgrounds in fashion and business. I'm drawn to the space where user needs, aesthetics, and business goals meet, and I believe good design makes all three better.

My path from business to fashion merchandising to product design gives me a cross-disciplinary perspective. I think about products not just as interfaces, but as experiences with real user and business impact.

I work fluidly between design and prototyping, using AI-assisted workflows and vibe coding to bring ideas to life quickly and test them in real environments.
