Hi, I’m Janice Chan (she/her), and I translate my experience as a technologist, community builder, and teacher into usable, inclusive services. People often ask me to make sense of complex processes or ambiguous environments. Teams trust me to align structure and workflows with stakeholder needs and business goals.

How I work

I start by making sense of the context. I look at the whole stack, from touchpoints and business processes to systems and all the people who make things happen. I often draw to facilitate conversations across boundaries, looking always to bridge the gaps and to map towards clarity.

Who I work with
