Jennifer was born in Downtown Los Angeles' Chinatown and currently resides in Tempe, Arizona. It was her personal experience being born to and raised by Chinese immigrant parents that informs her interests and work today. In her career, she has been involved in and worked with organizations focused on serving the Asian American Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders (AANHPI) community and youth leadership for the past decade. Most recently, Jennifer is the founder and executive director for AZ AANHPI for Equity and AZ AANHPI Advocates. In the 2020 elections, the two organizations used a multipronged voter outreach approach that helped increase AZ AANHPI voter turnout by 58% from 2016 vote. As a mom to two young girls, she was motivated by her work to ensure that civil liberty and women’s rights are preserved for the future of her daughters.
