CHRISTOPHER CHANG
CREATING BRAND EXPERIENCES
About
My Story
I love creating holistic experiences. The most rewarding part of being a designer is creating meaningful experiences through collaboration, design process, and attention to detail. Creating brands like ASTRO Gaming has pushed my creative thinking, brand execution, and management skills. Now working with Critical Mass (at Apple) really has been a blessing to hone my design skills, work with super talented people, and create amazing web and app experiences for product launches.
I am a gamer, cook, gardener, sneaker head and look to inspire and be inspired. Inspired by my father to work hard, embracing sneaker culture to be more bold, and gaming with visually stunning interfaces has all influenced my career as a designer. I hope to continue to grow and use my skills to continue to create brand experiences.
