Yeng Tan

Selamat Pagi.

My name is Yeng, and I'm interested in how symbolic systems shape human behavior. I grew up playing classical music, performing with Steven Isserlis and the Asian Youth Orchestra. Then, I studied software engineering with Dr. Nicholas Sakellariou before moving to San Francisco to work at GoDaddy Airo. I also published fiction and organized a techno series.

Now, I'm building Lekondo, a third space for fashion. The best way to discover fashion is still a friend wearing Ann Demeulemeester. We're fixing that.
