Jeremy Hsing is a humanistic sci-fi writer, mental health advocate, and 2nd-gen Taiwanese immigrant based in LA. Born on Leap Day because his mom couldn’t hold in his big head, Jeremy combines his therapist background (BA in Psychology and double minor in art history and film from UCLA) and big head to construct elaborate worlds in which his characters go on a journey of internal reckoning in the pursuit of an emotional catharsis.
Jeremy is currently mentored by Lee Isaac Chung through the Academy Gold Rising Mentorship Program and Lee Eisenberg through the Group Effort Initiative Mentorship Program. His magical realism short film FISH premiered at NFMLA InFocus: Asian Cinema, the Boston Asian American Film Festival, and the Asian American International Film Festival and won the Youth Grand Jury Prize at the Astoria Film Festival. He is currently directing a short sci-fi documentary for PBS American Masters and serving as the Sundance Episodic Lab Seasonal Assistant. In his free time, you can catch Jeremy watching a Lakers game or listening to
Kendrick Lamar. And if you’re wondering, yes Jeremy does celebrate his birthday every year and yes technically he is only 6 years old.
