-MY STORY-
I was born and raised in Taipei, with a. Few short years lived in Chicago. After high school I left the nest and moved across the world on my own to Seattle, where I stayed for 5 years before inevitably ending up in Los Angeles.
My life has been a rhythm of arriving and letting go—of settling just enough to be uprooted again. I grew up between languages, cultures, and identities, balancing the quiet complexity of being biracial in spaces that often asked me to choose. Adapting became second nature. It became the new norm.
If I had to pinpoint the most defining chapter of my youth, it would be high school in Taipei—a season so layered it’d take longer than The Irishman to unpack. School began at 7:30 a.m. and stretched until 8:30pm. Dating could get you expelled, self-expression? Ill-advised. Makeup, hair dye, tattoos—grounds for discipline. It was strict. It was brutal. And though I may have visited the principal more times than I could count, it turned out to be quite formative.
I was never the “book smart” kid. Senior year, my math teacher created a separate test—just for me—so I wouldn’t fail. I barely passed that. And yet, in those three years, I grew more than I ever thought possible. By the end, I was honored as the school’s model student and stood before the mayor of Taipei to receive an award I hadn’t even known existed.
In 2016, I made the second-hardest decision of my life: to leave my country, my culture, my language, and my family behind to start over in Seattle. The hardest? Saying goodbye to everything I built on my own in Seattle during those five years and moving to Los Angeles to chase a dream I couldn’t ignore.
Seattle was my training ground—five years of stretching, breaking, healing, and sharpening. It was the prologue. And in 2021, I turned the page. Chapter One began with unfamiliar streets, distant stars, mounting debt, and a promise to myself: that I wouldn’t just act, I’d inspire.
And so, the journey began……
