Irene Woo: Golden Child

Irene Woo

Until recently, Irene Woo embodied the 'Golden Child'. As a Senior Software Engineer at Google, she had it all: the six-figure salary, the impressive job title and the unconditional approval of her immigrant parents. But when she turned 28, she quit her job to tell jokes in damp basements. With the unrelenting standards of a Type-A Asian oldest daughter and the messy reality of a human being, Irene explores the golden handcuffs of the tech world, the cultural whiplash of being a French-Chinese woman in America and the baffling logic of modern relationships.
