Zoe Chao
/ZOH-ee CHOW/
proper noun
given name; “life” in Greek
Zoe is a third-culture kid from Shanghai, Taipei, and California, who spent stints in New Jersey (where she had the best lox and cream cheese bagels of her life). She now resides in Evanston, IL where she studies journalism at Northwestern University. Zoe is passionate about impact-driven storytelling and interested in the intersection between media and tech, hoping to explore the fields of journalism, product management, marketing, consulting, and creative media as an agent of change.
When Zoe’s not studying for school, she loves spending time with her family, traveling around the world, playing basketball, reading, writing stories, drinking coffee (iced black and sometimes with a bit of oat milk), and her personal favorite, eating. Like her name, she lives life to the fullest, and one day hopes to change the world.
