👋 Hi there! I’m Rina, a Product Designer at Meta. Previously, I was a UX designer working on Alexa at Amazon working on communications, device onboarding, fitness, and visual UI systems. Before transitioning into UX, I studied Architecture at Cornell University.
I have mentored 40+ people (via Mentorcruise, Design Lab, ADP List, etc) through career transitions, interviewing skills, and helped mentees receive offers at Google, Meta, Wealthsimple, and more.
Whether you are a student, UX bootcamp graduate, career switcher, or new professional, we can work together to come up with a plan specific to your goals. My mentorship style involves active listening, encouragement, and actionable feedback.
As a career switcher, I know how stressful it is to transition your career. While it feels like you're starting over from scratch, there are many ways you can leverage and market your existing skillset. By understanding your unique background, I can give guidance on ways you can stand out.
As someone who has received offers at top tech companies (Google, Meta, Amazon, Uber, Pinterest, Cashapp, Square, Snap and more), I can help you break into the tech industry and teach you frameworks that work. I have experience as a screener and design interviewer and can give you tips on how to best represent yourself to the hiring team.
As your mentor, I can help you with the following:
→ Transition your career to UX
→ Review your Portfolio & CV
→ Guide you through the UX Interview process
→ Prepare you for whiteboards/app critiques
→ Understand salary & market expectations
→ Mock UX Interviews
→ Break into a top tech company
Ultimately, the time we set aside is for you, we can tailor our meetings to what is helpful for you at any given time. Can’t wait to meet!

I recently booked two whiteboard design exercise sessions with Rina to prepare for upcoming interviews with a few companies. Rina’s guidance and suggestions were clear, practical, and constructive, which made it obvious that she’s an experienced and talented designer. Her help definitely made a difference—I successfully received an offer from the company I was most interested in. I highly recommend Rina if you’re looking for someone who can effectively help you prepare for interviews or support your career growth.

Rina's feedback has been vague and unhelpful, leaving me feeling like I'm going in circles. After weeks of revising a single screen based on her guidance, she asked me to revert to my original design. This was incredibly frustrating and felt like a waste of time. It feels like everything is geared towards scheduling more sessions that don't actually lead anywhere. I don't feel like she's genuinely invested in helping me; instead, it seems her focus is on booking additional sessions rather than providing meaningful, actionable feedback.
