Jenny Jing Zhu is a first-generation Chinese immigrant and proud Asian American. At an early age it became clear she was cut from a different cloth, defying her parents' wishes and cultural expectations. From finding her first job at age six in the small rural village of Caolou to learning about the realities of entrepreneurship, life, and love in Bejing as an older teen, Jenny relied on her instincts to follow her dreams.
