'My story is an immigrant story, just like so many others here in San Diego,' UCSD professor Tom Wong said. 'And to be able to receive such a prestigious award and have my parents there to see me get it was the culmination of their immigrant experience.'

Jade Hindmon is KPBS Midday Edition co-host. Prior to making San Diego home, Jade worked in markets across the Southeast and Midwest, building a network of sources to tell the stories of people in each community.

Jade is a three-time Emmy nominee, a National Association of Black Journalists Salute to Excellence Finalist, and the recipient of a South Carolina Associated Press Award.
