About

I work across product thinking, interface design, and runnable prototypes.

Charlie Chan Studio is a working record of how ideas become clear enough to test, use, and explain.

Clarity begins before the interface.

Good product work starts by finding what is actually unclear: the problem, the decision, or the path people need to take.

I use prototypes to make assumptions visible, then document what changed so the result can be questioned and improved.

How I work

1. Understand the problem

   Research the context before choosing the form.

2. Make it tangible

   Prototype the critical interaction before making claims.

3. Leave a clear record

   Explain the decision, the evidence, and the next question.
