About Me
Hi, I'm Zongchen Teng. I create data-powered tools and intuitive experiences that turn spreadsheets into dashboards, ideas into apps, and raw data into meaningful decisions. As a creator of BI-driven solutions and seamless UX, I build products that help teams work smarter and more efficiently.
When I'm not wrangling data or designing interfaces, you'll probably find me assembling my next mechanical keyboard or lost in the precise, expressive world of classical guitar — chasing the same balance of structure and creativity that shapes my work.
