Episode 19: An Extraordinary - and Careful - Chinese American Woman
Manage episode 317552166 series 3277965
"We're not people you would think would start a nonprofit."
In this episode, we talk to our friend Amy, a San Francisco Asian Mom and the founder and executive director of Jubilee Immigration Advocates, a nonprofit providing free and low cost immigration legal services in the Bay Area. Amy talks about being a somewhat atypical nonprofit founder and exec director, her value for collaborative leadership, and how professional mentors have helped her embrace her own background coming from a family of working class immigrants from China and Hong Kong, and as a working mom. We also discuss how all of us have come to treasure our identities as Asian American women - sometimes careful and conscientious, but also passionate and risk-taking.
