Yuxin has made a lifelong commitment to empowering sexual minority women. After coming out as a lesbian at the age of 16, they have actively engaged in LGBTQQIAA community work. During their education journey at Brandeis University, Columbia University, and Stanford University, Yuxin held various student leadership positions in sexual minority groups. They then became an advocate in the technology industry for sexual minority rights and equity. With over 10 years of experience in LGBTQQIAA+ community work, Yuxin has gained valuable insights and understanding of event organizing and community building.
In 2022, Yuxin co-founded UPWomen with motivated queer identified women with similar life experiences and visions in Los Angeles. Together, they embarked on a new journey to create a safe, inclusive, educative, collaborative, and innovative community for all sexual minority women.
