Social Impact speaker, emcee & fundraising strategist

As the Chief Impact Officer of Write on Cue, Jen passionately engages audiences through speaking opportunities, effectively conveying meaningful ideas from the social impact sector. She specializes in articulating the mission and fundraising needs of organisations such as Habitat for Humanity, Mother’s Choice, ImpactHK, Mighty Oaks Foundation, rén, Chinese International School, Kids4Kids, and numerous other charities. She also leverages her experience as a fundraiser to develop and refine fundraising strategies with nonprofits.

Jen earned her BA degree from Princeton University, focusing on English literature and East Asian Studies.

Before dedicating herself to social impact, she was an Asian Equity Sales Trader at an investment bank.
