Wan-Chi (Wendy) Chang
I have 7+ years of experience in Industrial Design and have worked for a leading tech company and a renowned design firm in Taiwan. With a comprehensive understanding of tangible and digital product design, I use my technical expertise and innovative mindset to drive new product development that considers user needs, aesthetics, the latest technology advancements, and market demands. My designs have also received international design awards, including the Red Dot Award and the iF Concept Award.
As a design specialist, I excel in using design thinking to create innovative strategies and ideas that drive the direction of design. I collected user insights through qualitative and quantitative research, defined requirements, create prototypes, and executed designs such as product design and UI/UX design from large-scale mass-produced products to startup projects. Furthermore, I am experienced in cross-functional collaboration to advance product architecture and development.
"Good designs bring meaningful values"
I am keen on pursuing design with new values and exploring product innovation and market creation. Through my crowdfunding experience in Taiwan, I was responsible for proposing new product plans and was involved in the development and design. The result raised over 26 million TWD in crowdfunding campaigns and ranked top sales in its categories. I believe good designs bring value, not for the user but also for the company and even society.
