    Jimmy knows how to tell his story in an engaging and self depracating way. It’s cool to understand his struggles and his appreciation for what he’s become.

    You know, for people born in the US, it seems strange to think about immigrants. But at the same time-we are all immigrants. Jimmy wrote a book the detailed his very personal journey as he adapted to living in America-and more importantly, living for his dream. And that, is what How to American is all about. I don’t need to meet Jimmy to feel his passion as he continued his unbridled pursuit of achieving his dream. I don’t need to talk to him to know that he is not Jian Yang from Silicon Valley. But I do get to feel his happiness as he achieved his dream-and that dream is one of personal satisfaction in being able to do what one loves. Jimmy-I am so glad you have achieved your dream-if I get to meet you, shake hands with you, even get a selfie with you, it doesn’t change one very important fact-you are Jimmy O. Yang - And you’ve written a book that should make every American-every American who has a lineage of being or having been an immigrant-happy and sad and joyful-more importantly, understanding that being American is not just a dream-it is now your reality. A great book for those who’ve forgotten they’re only a generation or three away from Jimmy’s experience - and maybe, just maybe - help them to be more empathetic and accepting of those making their own journey as an immigrant to the USA.
