Hi! I'm Andrea Foo.

I'm a product manager, designer, creator


❀ Global Citizen, Product Leader ❀
My journey began in Singapore, blossomed in Shanghai, and ultimately led me to Tufts University in Boston. This diverse background fostered a passion for understanding different cultures and perspectives. But my true calling lies in delving deeper – uncovering user needs through genuine conversation.

❀ From User Insights to Product Impact ❀
Leveraging my Master's in Learning, Design, Innovation, and Technology from Harvard Graduate School of Education and my foundation in Computer Science from Tufts, I transitioned from the world of education to the exciting realm of product management. Currently, I'm an Associate Product Manager at Coohom, where I thrive on transforming user insights into impactful product launches and measurable growth.

❀ Beyond the Binary ❀
When I'm not engrossed in the world of product development, you can find me defying gravity with aerial hoop and hammock artistry. I also cherish the joy of creating delicious meals for friends and family.
