Justin Chang Stauffer
Human-Centered Physical Design
at Northwestern University
I’m a product design engineer working at the intersection of user research and design. I’m currently pursuing my master’s in Engineering Design Innovation at Northwestern University, building on a background in mechanical engineering and product design. During my undergraduate studies, I received awards in a NASA competition designing technology for permanent lunar settlement, and worked on projects ranging from redesigning injection molding systems to developing sustainable children's toys.
My passion lies in everyday design. I want to create solutions for real people, to make a difference where it truly matters. I believe good design is invisible— so natural no one stops to consider whether it was really made with them in mind. Focusing on accessibility and simplicity, I dream of creating a world where no one is left behind.
