Hi, I'm Jo!

actor, rabid bookworm,
banana-brained and voice-trained 🍌

​

I’m an Asian American performer (Chinese, Taiwanese, Korean) from Orange County with a background in Meisner, voiceover, and comedic forms including improv, sketch, and Clown. Whether on stage, screen, or behind the mic, I'm always drawn to roles that blend vulnerability, precision, and sharp comedic timing. 

You’ve heard me as lead and recurring characters on Netflix, Disney+, Paramount+, and Amazon Prime. I’ve narrated audiobooks for HarperCollins and was selected as a 2024 Macmillan Audio Digital New Narrator, one of only 24 chosen from over 350 applicants. 

​

On screen, I recently held a recurring role on General Hospital and was selected for both ABC’s Workshop Week and NBCUniversal’s Launch program in partnership with East West Players. On stage, I’ve performed with East West Players, IAMA Theatre, Artists at Play, and PlayGround-LA.

​

When I'm not acting, I'm usually baking some fresh cookies, taking care of a foster cat, or practicing wushu martial arts!  You can also find me Wednesday mornings at the Los Angeles Breakfast Club (being either a big ham or a good egg)!

​

There was a time my voice felt like a flaw, even a disability. Too different…too something. But over time, I realized what made me different is exactly what makes me connect and bring stories to life. Like a banana, I got better with time. And everyone knows that it’s the ripe ones that make the best banana bread. Let’s serve.
