Before entering academia, Professor Wong served as Project Director for Marketing & Special Events at The Orange County Register, as well as Project Manager for the newspaper’s iPad team, where she helped lead innovative digital initiatives. Her broadcast experience includes roles as Senior Promotions Producer for KTTV FOX 11 and MY13 Los Angeles, and as a Marketing Producer for FOX 11 and Fox Sports Net West.
