In 1968, a starry-eyed Asian female engineer arrives at the Los Angeles International Airport, confident that her $300 pocket money and professional credentials are enough to unlock the good life in America. To her rude awakening, she discovers that racism, sexism, poverty, and language barriers threaten to derail her plans. She braces herself for a long, lonely battle, which she determines she must win. She fights the good fight and succeeds as an engineer, entrepreneur, author, and professional motivational speaker. She became the first Asian engineer to serve in the U.S. Council of Engineering Examiners. She received national Entrepreneurial Leadership awards... A gripping true story of grit, tenacity, resilience, and triumph of the human spirit. (Source: http://www.amazon.com)
