About
Andy Chung is a designer and the founder of read.cv, the professional platform used by people across the world to make meaningful connections.
The previous homeowner of this space was a woodturner who had built her workshop behind the primary house. He now uses the space as the Read.cv office, with some extra desks for when my co-founder Mehdi visits or any friends want to come through and hang out for the day.

3 questions› How do you spark creativity?
Take time to discover new music, spend time with friends, or travel somewhere new. Basically breaking the routine of working on software.
› Office Setup
I've never been the type of person who can work 12+ hours a day and have it be efficient. Typically I can get around 4 hours of deep work done a day and then I'm at my limit. I keep this top of mind and make sure I take time out of my day to get outside for a hike, bike ride, or hang with friends.
› Why did you start Read.cv and what is the biggest problem you currently face?
I started Read.cv out of a personal need for a simple 1 pager that communicated my interests, projects, and work experience in one place. It has evolved into a platform to share your work with others in a way that feels genuine, not transactional. Our biggest challenge right now is keeping up with all the feature requests, which is a good problem to have.
