Candice Chan graduated from Wellesley College in Massachusetts where she majored in English. Inspired by a visit to her great-grandfather’s hometown in China, Chan decided to become a journalist. She has had internships at the San Francisco Bay Guardian, an alternative weekly, and Wired magazine. Chan is a magazine concentrator at Columbia Graduate School of Journalism. She is covering the Hell’s Kitchen/Clinton neighborhood in Manhattan.

A native of San Francisco Bay Area, Chan loves spending time outdoors and traveling. Her most recent trip included visiting Austria, Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Poland with a Eurail pass and two weeks of supplies stuffed into an overlarge backpack. Chan hopes to one day visit South Africa.
