    • Trivia
      Her father, an anesthesiologist, was Chinese-American. Her mother was born and raised in Huw, Vietnam.
    • Quotes
      Even though I am half-Vietnamese, I never grew up with any Vietnamese culture. Our house was always filled with Chinese art, Chinese food, Chinese people, Chinese music, and the idea that the Lunar New Year equaled Chinese New Year's. My father was and still is a Chinese superiorist.
