My name is Beverly Yip.

My journey into technology began with personalizing my blog in the early 2000s, where I taught myself HTML and CSS, sparking an interest for design and problem-solving. This led me to pursue a Computer Science degree at Purdue University, where I deepened my skills in both full-stack engineering and design.

As a Full-Stack Software Engineer at Salesforce, I led impactful projects like the Flow Builder in Summer 2023, which gained industry-wide acclaim for its transformative impact on user experience and web accessibility. Collaborating with UX teams, Product Managers, and engineers, I focused on delivering user-centric solutions that prioritized accessibility and usability. I believe in the power of diverse perspectives and open communication to design with empathy and inclusivity.

With a lifelong interest in understanding human behavior, my Anthropology minor has shaped my design philosophy — prioritizing empathy, functionality, and inclusivity in every project.

Beyond engineering, my leadership journey centers on promoting inclusion and mentorship. As an Accessibility Champion at Salesforce, I ensured our products met the needs of a diverse user base. At Purdue, I served as President of the Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers (SASE), where I spearheaded initiatives that grew membership by 475%. Today, as a Coding Lab mentor and Graduate Assistant, I offer personalized guidance and support to aspiring developers and students while furthering my commitment to diversity and inclusivity.

Now pursuing a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction at at NYU ITP '26, I specialize in UX engineering, particularly accessibility, prototyping, and user-centered design, with a focus on web accessibility to design more inclusive and intuitive interactions between people and technology.

I aspire to build accessible, delightful, and intuitive digital experiences for all users.
