Somin Yoo is an architectural designer and product leader bridging nearly a decade of tech product experience with advanced architectural training as an M.Arch I candidate at Harvard GSD. After leading ML and AI product design at Segment and managing cross-functional teams, she pivoted into architecture with internships at prominent studios including Neri&Hu, Barkow Leibinger, and Christ & Gantenbein. Her work uniquely blends systems thinking from product management with spatial, material, and curatorial sensibilities rooted in a BA in History of Art from Yale. Comfortable translating complex briefs into tangible outcomes, she moves fluidly between iterative digital prototyping and hands-on architectural practice. Based in New York, she brings a rare hybrid perspective—designing for human experience while leveraging data-driven product methodologies. An unexpected strength is her curatorial background on major museum exhibitions, which informs a refined attention to narrative and display in built projects.
