  • Kristina Wong

    Kristina Wong is a comedian, writer and performance artist who grew up in San Francisco and is now based in LA. She just completed a month long run at LA's Center Theatre Group with her show, Kristina Wong for Public Office, based on her experience being an elected representative of Koreatown. She also started the Auntie Sewing Squad at the beginning of the pandemic to make masks for health care workers, and now for underserved populations. That experience spawned a documentary in the making and a book deal. If you can, donate or make some masks and spread the protection instead of infection.

    Selena grew up around Orlando, Florida with a Vietnamese mother and white father. She followed in her older sister's footsteps into a career as a professional dancer which included touring with Disney's The Lion King. After her dance career ended, she thought about becoming a director of photography but decided directing was more her lane. She now directs social media branded content and live performances, most recently Coco: Live From The Hollywood Bowl, based on the Disney movie.

  • Dr. Grace Chen

    Kung Flu got ya down? What about the China Virus? Just when we thought we could live our lives and mind our own business, pandemic race baiting has singled Asians out as the scapegoat du jour. I discuss this issue with Dr. Grace Chen, a psychologist, along with the Model Minority myth, balancing life between two cultures, the resistance to getting mental health help, and specific issues that confront Asian American women.
