"Chu is an imaginative and passionate designer and thinker. At SOM, she demonstrated her talents and dedication to improving urban life for current and future generations, helping to win and successfully deliver some of the highest profile city design projects in China. Most impressively, Chu is always seeking to apply new approaches and technologies to creatively communicate design ideas—always thinking about “what’s next” in our industry and world as a whole."

"Chu is the best teammate one can ever have — passionate, accountable, cool under pressure and always carries a splash of humor. I had the pleasure of working closely with Chu for two years at SOM on multiple high-profile urban design projects. She makes a conscientious effort in capturing site user needs and has the ability to translate them into design. Lucky to have her as such a great peer to learn from!"
