Yvonne graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in Cognitive Science and Economics, integrating disciplines like Computer Science, Neurobiology, Psychology, Linguistics, and Philosophy.

Her career journey began at Deloitte as a consultant, transitioning to a product manager role at LinkedIn. Yvonne now furthers her career at Nomad Health, a startup focused on connecting healthcare professionals with hospitals. Aside from her professional life, she is passionate about writing, reading, spending time with her pets, and engaging in yoga and pilates.
