Eva Chen

Eva is a lifelong autodidact. When faced with a challenge where she is short of certain skills or knowledge, she considers them invitations to dive into unknown but interesting fields. For example, when she had an app idea but not the technical and design skills, she spent a whole year learning the foundational skills – then she spent the next year building that app.She holds a B.A. in Interdisciplinary Studies Field at UC Berkeley, where she had an active role in planning my cross-disciplinary curriculum (Psychology, Development Studies and Business). She has been working as a web application developer at Zendesk now for over four years.
