TalkMeUp is an AI-based SaaS company providing on-demand, customized, and cost-effective communications training for individuals and enterprise. As the sole UX design professional, I was responsible for designing the user interfaces for both coaches and learners.

When I studied at Carnegie Mellon University, I met the founder of TalkMeUp, JJ Xu, a CMU MBA student. In winter 2017, I joined TalkMeUp as their first UX Design Intern until summer 2018, when my graduate capstone project became full-time and occupied most of my day.
My internship at TalkMeUp was a positive and productive experience. Being a full-time graduate student at Carnegie Mellon University made the time management very challenging, but I am glad that I made it through.
At TalkMeUp, not only did I well balanced my coursework and internship work, I learned must-have skills in real-world workplaces:
A Big THANK YOU to JJ, my direct manager and the founder of TalkMeUp. The valuable mentorship she provided has been very helpful in my later career.
"Yumei was quite adaptive to startup’s fast pace, demonstrating the ability to learn and grow." -- JJ Xu, Founder and CEO at TalkMeUp
TalkMeUp has two groups of targeted users: coaches and learners. My work covers both of them.
While I can't share the details of my work, you got the picture. Well, here's what I can share :)
