Abigail Hing Wen works at the intersection of storytelling and technology. She is a New York Times Best Selling Author of five novels, producer, director, woman-in-tech leader specializing in artificial intelligence, as well as a mother of two. She writes and speaks about tech, AI ethics, women’s leadership and transforming culture. In this episode, we talk about implicit biases faced by Asian Americans, her writing process, and becoming our own role models. We trace her journey from prestigious careers in law and finance to becoming a successful writer and filmmaker today.
