What inspired you to seek a career in television?
My parents are my main inspiration into seeking a career in television. Growing up in a town where I wasn’t surrounded by people who looked like me, my parents always put on Cantonese-speaking television shows afterschool. My parents taught me the power of media and how I can connect with my heritage and culture through television.

What inspired you to seek a career in television?
While starring in an episode of FX's Better Things with Emmy-winning director-writer-actor Pamela Adlon, I felt inspired by her leadership and versatility on set. At age 12, I watched the episode with my grandmother, who was visiting from the Philippines. Hearing her belly laughs and seeing her emotionally connect to the story highlighted the universal power of television to me and its ability to transcend borders. As a SAG-AFTRA television actress, I aspire to follow in Pamela's footsteps and develop TV shows that bridge the gap between different races, genders, and generations.

What inspired you to seek a career in television?
When I was growing up, I would always be watching a television show, before school, after school, and even a few episodes before bed. As I started to understand what these shows are, I was fascinated and eager to learn about the process behind these projects. Today, there is a power of influence with audiences on social media, but I believe it all started with television. I love how television shows have the ability to engage audiences including myself and keep us engaged to it through interesting characters and storytelling.

What inspired you to seek a career in television?
What inspired me to seek a career in television were my parents. More specifically, my mom. She would always tell me to pursue what I loved growing up, so I fell in love with editing when I was in high school. Now, I wish to make my parents proud by showing them that my passion for editing has brought me to an interesting world, and I have them to thank for the encouragement they have given me my whole life.
