About Me

Tara Lyn

I am a product designer navigating the space where business strategy, emerging technology, and human-centered design meet.

My unconventional journey began early in my career as a software developer, where I became captivated by the intersection of creativity and code. After earning a B.S. in Mathematics from Trinity College, I pursued art and design at Tufts University’s Museum School, and later earned an M.S. in Business, Design & Technology from USC Iovine & Young Academy. This multi-disciplinary path gave me the fluency to view problems from diverse perspectives and build consensus across both technical and creative teams.

I have applied that mindset across a broad spectrum of challenges, from designing and building SaaS platforms for top-tier biotech companies like Pfizer and Genentech, to founding the direct-to-consumer brand Blossom Bags.

Today, that same curiosity drives my enthusiasm for AI and the future of product development. As the industry shifts towards AI integration, I view these emerging tools not as replacements for human ingenuity, but as entirely new materials for creative problem solving.

I am driven by the belief that great products are rooted in understanding real human challenges. It’s never just about aesthetics or raw code. It’s about creating a meaningful, seamless experience between a product and its audience.

Let's build something.

Currently open for new opportunities and collaborations.
