Mimi wong – Advisor

Mimi Wong, PhD, was born in Guangzhou China, and immigrated to the USA with her family when she was about 8 yrs old. As she progressed in her clinical training, she learned that not only were there few psychological and neuropsychological resources available to the Chinese and Asian American patient population, there was also little peer or mentor support for those training to serve this population. This led to a journey of seeking out and helping to create a new community, the Asian Neuropsychological Association, with the shared vision of providing excellent culturally sensitive neuropsychological services for all individuals of Asian descent. For fun, she likes to play tennis, badminton, snowboard, travel, and enjoy time with family and friends.
