About me

My name is Anita Tsai, a product designer at Marqeta.

I'm dedicated to crafting exceptional digital products that foster meaningful connections and enrich users' lives.

My journey began in product management for a consumer-facing app, where I discovered my innate ability to understand user needs and collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders. I transitioned to working as a product designer, with a focus on using user-centered design methods to solve complex problems.

This realization inspired me to pursue a Master's degree in Information Science (HCI) at the University of Texas at Austin, where I immersed myself in learning accessible design, connecting with like-minded individuals, and contributing to the UX community.

Throughout my career, I've led the launch of products across iOS, Android, web, and desktop platforms, ensuring seamless experiences with responsive design. Whether working with fintech companies or startups, I've demonstrated my ability to navigate complex landscapes and deliver successful outcomes.

Beyond my professional pursuits, I find joy in capturing moments through film photography, perfecting the art of pour-over coffee, engaging in badminton matches, immersing myself in concerts, and cooking Taiwanese dishes.
