Growing up with limited resources, Leang Chung experienced what it’s like to be underestimated and the importance of access in order to get ahead. Coaching, mentoring and helping other underestimated people succeed is what gives her purpose.

Leang holds a M.A. degree in Organizational Psychology from Columbia University and a M.S. degree in Marketing from Johnson & Wales University.
