Huang-Menders has informed the public on topics ranging from female empowerment, mental health care during COVID-19, online safety and privacy, anti-Asian hate crimes, ending U.S. child marriages, and other pressing issues.
Huang-Menders is a co-founder of “The Power of Faces,” a global portrait project that shows displaced people and refugees with their inherent courage, beauty, dignity, and grace.

Huang-Menders also raises awareness of important social issues through her art. She has created larger-than-life murals across the country, from the U.S./Mexico border to support refugee families, Providence, RI, to recognize sisterhood, and downtown Trenton, NJ, to promote urban revival and community.
She is a student at Stanford University, focusing on cybersecurity and international studies. She is co-author of the book “Practical Cyber Security for Extremely Busy People” and has interned with the New Jersey Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell, a division of U.S. Homeland Security, where she received hands-on training in threat analysis, incident reporting, and risk mitigation.
