About - Wen Chen

I am currently a graduate student focusing on Interaction Design and Digital Arts at Interactive Telecommunication Program (ITP), NYU, and work as a graphic designer at Bit Project Organization.

Before I came to New York City in 2019, I studied Advertising as an undergrad at National Chengchi University in Taipei. I discovered my interest in storytelling and design, and taught myself graphic design skills by designing posters for exhibitions and festivals. I was selected to plan the visuals for the graduation showcase for our college.

I also worked as an assistant editor and Visual Designer for BIOS Monthly. Besides work, I play cello with my band, Blue Curtain. We released our first EP Sunshine Island(Designed by me!) and we have a Taiwan tour during 2019. You can check our album out here.

I love telling stories with visuals, music, words, and now, I want to raise my voice with technology and UX. My works focus on the experience design in emerging technologies; Through different technologies, I look forward to improving people's experiences on social interaction. So, let's start an adventure.

Here is my Resume!

I'm currently looking for product designer/UX Designer/Visual Designer jobs, and can't wait to chat about tech and design!
