I'm a 1st-gen Chinese-American and Beijing native who's spent my life traveling between my family in Asia and home in California.

In 2017, after several years in international supply chain and business operations, I quit my desk job to become a freelance illustrator and bought a one-way ticket to Asia.

It was during this time that I discovered jackfruit chips, a snack that would eventually lead me to start my own food biz in the midst of a pandemic.

Having witnessed the evolution of our cross-cultural cuisines, I have a proclivity for all things unique and delicious. But despite that, I'm a bit of a label reader..

..particularly when it comes to snacks.
