Do they see woman or Asian?

Jen Zhao.

In my role, I feel like I bridge the gap between the stereotypes from me being Asian with me being female. I do a lot of emotional labor, which may be expected from me as my identity as female. I also am very technical for my role, which sometimes I wonder – which stereotype do they use? Do they see the Asian side of me and trust me, or do they see I’m a woman and doubt my technicality, is that what’s happening when they don’t listen to me?
