Ada moved to America from China at just seven years old. She entered the second grade without speaking English and grew up in an immigrant household where success meant stability — a secure job, a predictable path, something safe. Creativity wasn’t part of the plan.

She was doing everything right but still felt felt completely disconnected from herself.

So, she took a risk. Bought a camera. And built a business.

This conversation is about redefining success, choosing courage over comparison, and building a creative life in the very place she once felt behind.
