About Kevin (Kev) Wang
Product Designer at Chan Zuckerberg Initiative
Design Experience I work as a Product Designer at Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. I've done 3 back to back product design internships in 1 year. I was able to receive 1 offer out of every 3 companies I interview with. I received a total of 6 offers. Notable companies: CZI, Mailchimp, Walmart, Freshbooks. I finished my CZI internship with a exceed rating, and received a return offer. I self learned product design and I come from an architecture college background.
Life Experience I am based in Cambridge, MA. I lived in SF Bay Area, Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, Beijing. I have China -> Canada -> US immigration and work experience. In my spare time, I am an entrepreneur. My life partner and I work with investors to empower tenants to become homeowners; we also provide safe and affordable housing for low income neighborhoods. Our real estate business currently generates $30,000 revenue, and is cashflow positive. In my spare spare time, I am big on personal development, passive income, badminton, sashimi, and travel.

“Kev is incredible. As someone transitioning careers, I gained lots of insight into what it's like to design for highly specialized users, which is not something I've encountered before. Kev also gave me some great advice on how to bring my prior strengths in business and cross-functional collaboration into the recruiting process. Thanks so much Kev!”
