I wrote and am currently performing in a one woman show at The LATC. It's a 90 minute play based on my experiences growing up in a Chinese immigrant family. I'm also developing a half-hour animated show about an orphan girl who befriends Jesus and his 12 homies. And finally I'm writing a feature film based on two activists from Detroit. Credits include The Affair and Tabloid.
