Founders

Heinin Zhang

Founder

I'm the Co-founder and Co-CEO of yhangry. I grew up in Germany and China and I studied Philosophy and Economics at the London School of Economics, before starting my career on the trading floor at Goldman Sachs. I'm a big foodie and wine-lover but always too busy to cook for my friends, hence yhangry to the rescue. In my free time, I compete my horse in eventing.

I'm the Co-Founder and Co CEO of yhangry. I grew up in India, studied Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) @ Columbia University in New York, and love to solve real-life problems using technology. Before yhangry, I was a credit trader for over six years, running over $700m of credit risk (across mortgages and financial credit). I'm also a (competitive) Bollywood dancer and a major coffee addict that brews her own barista coffee.
