SPEAKING
Hollis is a published writer and public speaker who frequently delivers keynote addresses and facilitates panel and community conversations.
Pulling from her background as a musician, poet, activist and entrepreneur, Hollis speaks on topics such as empowered creativity, independent artistry, intersectional feminism, how her background as a second generation Chinese-American informs her work, and more.
She has also been commissioned to write and perform spoken word poetry for organizations such as the Power Women Summit, YWCA King County, OneAmerica, and more.
“@wongweezy, your talk on self worth was sincere and firmly rooted in experience, hard work and millions of agonizing gut checks (so we don’t have to). The hustle is real, but you taught me to own who I am in and out of the day-to-day grind. It was the best presentation, only because I could see that so many young and diverse professionals understood themselves a lot better by hearing you speak.”
