I had the great opportunity to interviewed May-lee Chai last Friday in San Francisco, CA. I guess I was not the only one doing the interviewing! Below is an article that she wrote about me! I hope you enjoy it! Now, you (our supporter/viewer) have the opportunity to also get to know me! Thank you so much, May-lee!

She is also herself a former refugee. These identities are not at all contradictory, if you really think about it.
