Bio
Nicholas Chan
Philein is an exceptional producer, a rare business mind in the arts community. Philein and I have worked together in many capacities, namely in event production for Ziru Productions. Philein stands out to me because she is a bridge between the Chinese and Amerian communities. She is making meaningful impact through her art and continued support to young artists/producers. Through her myriad of projects, she consistently shows her deep passion for arts, specifically in the Chinese American community. Philein is highly detail oriented, extremely efficient, and an, in turn, an effective producer. I continue to learn from her business practices, but more importantly from her positive energy and upbeat attitude.
