About {Ting}

“Ting shapes her work by the belief that if you put in the effort, walk with good intentions, cultivate your strengths, create opportunities for others and surround yourself with great  people then the world will align for you. Perseverance and adaptability also helped shape her lifestyle today. Her family immigrated to America when she was only 1 year old and at one  point, they worked from a van creating jewelry to sell as they drove to activities like piano  lessons and soccer practice. This hard-working upbringing has led her to giving back in an  abundance of ways. 

As a philanthropist, Ting either serves on the board for, contributes to, and is a mentor and supporter for many organizations. To list a few, she’s currently involved with Leadership Rhode Island, the Rhode Island Philharmonic Orchestra & Music School, STYLEWEEK, Papitto Opportunity Connection, and many more. She is an entrepreneur with a successful family owned studio that amplifies stories through marketing and story-telling. She is a multi-award winner who is happier shedding the light onto others and their achievements. She is a daughter to a woman she feels is even more inspiring and tenacious than herself. She is a mother and a wife to two people who cherish her contributions to the  world as much, if not more, than herself. Overall, Ting is the kind of person that will take the  time to genuinely ask a stranger how they’re feeling because she knows a smile or small act of  kindness can change the course of anyone’s day. 

To Ting, philanthropy is more than just throwing money at a cause. It’s a lifestyle and her cup of coffee in the morning. The relationships she’s cultivated, and the impact created with each endeavor energizes her in such an enriching way. Her efforts in giving back to the community continue to strengthen her as a  person and teaches her even more about life. All of which are lessons she’s always more than  happy to learn”.
