The Portfolio: Chaoqun Wang Uses Design to Bridge Shared Human Experience

Having studied various subjects at Brown and Brandeis universities and graduated with honors from Rhode Island School of Design, Chaoqun Wang comes from a rich academic pedigree. But it’s the Shanghai native’s geographic exposure that she believes gives her a wholly unique perspective.
