creative + executive

Eight people in dark coats and white outfits walk on a reflective beach, holding bright yellow umbrellas. Two lights on stands illuminate the scene.

Hello! I’m Yukko Chan (陳裕君), a creative + executive professional based in Vancouver. My work sits at the intersection of theatre, film, design, marketing, community publishing, wellness design, and human-centered technology.

I currently serve as Executive Director of West Coast Cultural Lab, a nonprofit connecting art, community, and technology, and as Creative Director of DinoZz Studio, a design and marketing studio. Through these roles, I explore how creativity, humanity, and emerging technology can shape a better human experience.

I’m often described as a cultural innovator within Vancouver’s creative community, someone who brings people together through stories, community events, and accessible tools.

My strength lies in turning ideas into action. I use design thinking, storytelling, and human insight to create projects that connect people, support well-being, and respond to real community needs. This approach allows me to work across art, design, commercial, and technology fields with a shared purpose: to create meaningful experiences for people, partners, and communities.

Earlier in my career, my theatre work toured internationally through festivals and collaborations across Asia, Europe, and South America, shaping my approach to cross-cultural storytelling and community-centered practice.

My work has been featured in media across Hong Kong, South Korea, Bolivia, and beyond.
