Ms. See was born in Paris but grew up in Los Angeles. She lived with her mother but spent a lot of time with her father’s family in Chinatown. Lisa’s bi-racial, bi-cultural family has caused her to have an affinity towards writing about these kinds of stories. 

Ms. See has always been intrigued by stories that have been lost, forgotten, or deliberately covered up, whether in the past or happening right now in the world today. 

Ms. See lives in Los Angeles.  You can also follow her adventures on Instagram, Twitter & Facebook, you can also visit her web site at https://www.lisasee.com/
