I am a Cultural Entrepreneur. For the past quarter of a century, I have been lucky to work across cultural industries -- including art, media, fashion and food -- to incubate and develop brands into innovative companies.In 2009, I founded LUCKYRICE, an experiential and content production company that shines a spotlight on Asian culture through the universally appetizing lens of food and drink. From our home base in NYC, the LUCKYRICE Festival has since expanded to 8 US markets. In 2015, I created Lucky Chow, a national PBS series about Asian culture through the lens of food which I produce and host. Lucky Chow has won numerous awards, including Telly Awards and Tastemaker Awards and received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Culinary Series in 2021. We are currently in production for Season 7. My first book, Lucky Rice: Stories and Recipes from Night Markets, Feasts and Family Tables (Clarkson Potter) was published in 2016. I am currently working on a book on Chinese remedies and food therapy. Prior to starting LUCKYRICE, I was the CEO of Vivienne Tam, a fashion and lifestyle company.As an entrepreneur, I was the founder and publisher of Simplycity, a venture-backed, global women’s lifestyle media company and print magazine. Other businesses I have founded include Xiao Bao Chinese, a Chinese language and cultural learning school in partnership with the Museum of the Chinese in America, and ArtWalk Art Tours of SoHo.I began my career at The New York Times. After earning my masters degree in Critical Theory from Columbia University, I was a Professor of Contemporary Art History at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). In the mid 90’s, I curated exhibitions by emerging artists and was a Director of the Andrea Rosen and Jeffrey Deitch galleries.My international experience includes working in Hong Kong for Goldman Sachs and as the US Head of the French creative advertising agency Assouline.
