Hello 👋🏽

I’m Tiffany, and I’m passionate about designing cities for people.

I am the daughter of Taiwanese immigrants — born in Queens, raised in New Jersey, and have lived in San Francisco, Seattle, and Boston. My career has been a non-linear journey across design, entrepreneurship, and cities. I’ve mapped over 100 street vendors in Vietnam; worked in New Orleans post-Hurricane Katrina, started UX at Zipcar; sat on San Francisco’s Environment Commission; studied architecture and urban planning at MIT.

In 2014 I embarked on a fellowship at Code for America, to work on technology for the public sector. Alongside a few friends, I became the cofounder and CEO of Remix, a software platform for 500+ cities around the world to plan better transportation and increase access to opportunity. In 2021, Remix was acquired by Via.

For the past four years, I served as the first Chief of Staff to Mayor Michelle Wu, the first woman, person of color, and Asian American elected as Mayor of Boston — and helped lead our team to a decisive reelection for a second term. Read more about our administration’s term one accomplishments here.

Currently, I’m on a travel sabbatical with my family, and will be exploring opportunities towards the end of the year. Get in touch at tchu88 [at] gmail [dot] com.
