Tracey Chen believes that her life began with the genesis of TRACEY CHEN, the jewelry brand she founded. That was when she took her first step in pursuing her dream. "I experienced the marvel of a "rebirth", like how earthly mineral metamorphosize into jadeite.”
Originally a M&A lawyer in New York and Shanghai, her life transformed completely when she decided to move back to Taiwan to become a jewelry designer. A change like this can’t be done by just anyone – she not only pivoted her career path entirely, but also had to carry the role as the single mother of three young children.
"Women, we are like beautiful, precious jadeite that shine brighter with polishing."

But to Tracey, her dream is worth the challenges. She believes that the jadeite she designed are not just a beautiful commodity, but a symbol of emotional connection. She envisions to transform what consumers take as traditional precious stones into unique, delicate jadeite jewelry with modern aesthetics.
