Show Notes
Meet Joon Lee on Episode 056 of Dear Asian Americans!
We celebrate Joon's successes in his journalism career, writing for publications like ESPN, The Washington Post, The Boston Herald, and more.
We support his work in sharing stories for all fans to enjoy, but with particular excitement those with the context which only he could provide.
We are inspired by Joon's decision to pursue a career not often chosen by Asian Americans and now serving as a role model and mentor to so many who'll follow in his steps.
