Emily grew up in Taipei and became an international student in the US starting at the age of 12, practicing her English, and learning some very-American sports and activities. During her time in the US, she lived in Michigan, Hawaii, Massachusetts, and New York City. She moved back to Asia in 2007 to work in television and journalism.
Co-founder of Ghost Island Media, a multilingual podcast network based in Taiwan, with current affairs programs in Mandarin, English, and French. Our shows range from climate, cannabis, gender, culture, diplomacy, China, documentaries, Taiwan, and politics. We also run an emerging creators program for students and interns. We've been nominated for some cool podcasts and journalism awards, including winning Best Podcast Host in Taiwan in 2021.
I had so much fun talking to Emily about her schooling and some of the cultural identities in her past. Fun to compare notes when we're both "in-between".
