MEET OUR FOUNDER
ABOUT OUR FOUNDER
Misa Chien is an authentic leader who is known for inspiring others, and helps people feel less alone and more connected through positivity and transparency.
Misa’s engaging and charismatic communication style stems from her experience through multiple forms of communication through being on TV (Food Network's Great Food Truck Race), speaking at renowned institutions (HBS), and gracing the runway for brands such as Neutrogena and Target.
Misa's exceptional leadership and entrepreneurial style have propelled her into high demand as a speaker, podcast host, television personality, and has even earned her the distinction of being ranked as the 23rd most viewed woman on LinkedIn worldwide and #1 most viewed AAPI woman nationwide.
​Misa's goal in founding The Authentic Asian is to help as many Asian American women get support and succeed in all aspects of building their business, from raising money to increasing sales, and even gaining a six-figure board seat. The community is just as much a way to get support professionally as personally, and she hopes to help as many high-achieving women as possible feel seen—not just for their titles, but for their stories, their growth, and their legacy. Whether they’re in the midst of career transitions, seeking deeper friendships, or looking to send the elevator down to uplift the next generation, The Authentic Asian is designed to be the space where they can come home to themselves.
