She was awarded a patent for features to display inventory to the right buyer in 2014 – and has filed for four other related patents matching sellers and products with interested buyers. Chin's experience also includes work with Rhapsody Networks and Netcom. She holds a BA from UC Berkeley and a Harvard MBA.
