Tra was 14 years old when she wrote her comic and living in Washington D.C. She was born in Hanoi, Vietnam, but moved to the US for her dad’s work when she was 7. She loves playing sports, listening to K-Pop, and snacking. “Flavors of Vietnam! : a culinary journey from North to South” is her debut story.
During the summer of 2023, ten young people from AALEAD came together to create this zine centering Asian American/Pacific Islander (AAPI) stories. In collaboration with Shout Mouse Press story coaches and professional comics artists, they drew and wrote comics centering AAPI identities in diverse, authentic, accessible ways that affirm other AAPI young people, increase understanding, and foster an inclusive next generation.
