I’m a Taiwanese immigrant with an MFA in Writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts, and serve on the executive board of Calliope Writing Coach. I’m a permanent staff at Writing Away Refuge and a former committee member of Storymakers Conference. My bylines appear in the New York Times and HuffPost. My memoir, "Ninety-Nine Fire Hoops" (2021, She Writes Press), won the Grand Prize in the 2021 Millennium Book Award (UK) and the Grand Prize in the 2022 Shelf Unbound Indie Book Awards, and 70 others. I’m a frequent conference keynote speaker and presenter. I also appeared on TV, radio, and podcasts; in newspapers, magazines, and journals.
