Virginia Chan

Being raised in Hong Kong, Houston, and Chicago, I've always lived in a vibrant mix of cultures. This multicultural perspective shapes my vision to create digital products that resonate globally.

 

I started my career as an analytics consultant working with spreadsheets, charts, and graphs. However, my curiosity with user experience led me to explore design thinking, where I discovered the perfect intersection of data and human-centered design.

 

As I pursue my Master's degree at Northwestern University in Information Design and Strategy, I'm excited to leverage my analytical foundation while diving deeper into user-centered design principles.

 

As a third culture designer, I believe in creating digital experiences that transcend cultural boundaries and empower people through intuitive, accessible design.

 

Beyond my academic and professional lives, I enjoy exploring Chicago restaurants, playing with my two cats, and indulging in creative outlets like pottery and embroidery!
