She was trained at the Wilmette Theatre's Actors Training Center. Chang attended New Trier High School, graduating in 2013. She started studying creative writing at Columbia University. In 2015, she transferred to Northwestern University. Chang graduated from Northwestern in 2017.
Career
In 2013, Chang earned praise for her portrayal of Rebecca Ahn, the titular group's ringleader, in the satirical crime film The Bling Ring. Rolling Stone described her as "mesmerizing" while the Chicago Tribune called her a "performer of serious promise". The Hollywood Reporter said Chang's performance marked her as "someone to watch" going forward in her career. Director Sofia Coppola explained her choice of casting such a "fresh face" in a lead role, saying, "There's sort of a naturalness, as opposed to having worked a lot, being kid actors." Also in 2013, Chang starred in the comedy film A Birder's Guide to Everything. She then had a supporting role in the independent drama film Anesthesia. Chang then appeared in the teen comedy film The Outcasts, and will star in the upcoming Canal Street.
