Jen writes funny, heartfelt contemporary romances with diverse Asian American characters. Her debut novel, Crushing on You, was a finalist in two categories of the 2020 NJRW Golden Leaf contest, as well as a finalist in the 2023 Audies awards. When she isn't writing, you can find her climbing walls, making "art," or raiding the pantry for shrimp chips or chocolate. She lives in a pile of blankets near a pretty nice Wawa, with her husband and multiple tropical plants.
