Originally from India, Jo launched her U.S. chapter in Fort Lauderdale, later settling in the Northeast. This cross-continental journey, combined with her expertise in brand building and storytelling, led her to examine the layered realities of how race, gender, and identity intertwine.
Jo channels these insights into her debut work,
The Immigrant Journey, and its companion journal, The Immigrant Lens—a collective exploration of intersectionality, self-discovery, and personal transformation.
