Tien was born in Kaohsiung on 14 December 1999,[1] and was raised on Liuqiu Island.[2] The nerves in her right hand were damaged at birth, and she was bullied by classmates who noticed that she had limited use of that hand.[3] Tien began playing table tennis at the age of nine.[4]
She won two silver medals at the 2018 Asian Para Games, in the individual table tennis competition for class 10, and the women's class 8–10 team event alongside Lin Tzu-yu.[5] At the 2020 Summer Paralympics, Tien medaled in the Class 10 individual women's table tennis, winning bronze.[6][7]
