Supervising Producer
Jun is a Supervising Producer with extensive experience in digital video, documentary film and journalism. She has managed teams in all aspects of production, handled budgets and built out operations and workflows.
Jun's work focuses on underreported stories which have taken her from covering the U.S. military presence in Okinawa and Guam and Monsanto’s presence in Puerto Rico, to traveling to Arctic Village in northern Alaska to produce a story on the Indigenous Gwich’in people’s fight to protect the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge from oil drilling.
Some of her key projects include:
- Regional Emmy® award winning “Untold Story of America’s Southern Chinese,” AJ+. Fun fact: This documentary inspired the characters Grace and Bo Chow in Ryan Coogler's box office record breaker Sinners
