AMAZIAN OF THE WEEK! Diana Keng
Name: Diana Keng
Age: 18
Hails from: Silicon Valley
Occupation: High school senior, CEO
Known for: Doing business. WSJ just profiled Keng, a high school senior that presented her company, MyWeboo.com (a social networking management site that launched in March), to venture capitalists at last week’s Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco. Keng shares MyWeboo with her 25-year-old brother, but it’s her third start-up company. Yeah, that’s right muthafuckaz! THIRD START-UP.
Did we forget to mention that Keng started her first company at age 15, but bailed because it wasn’t making enough money? And that despite her busy business schedule, she still does well in school and plays badminton? AND for goodness sake, her name is DIANA? By golly, Keng is my a Hardass Asian Parent’s WET DREAM. Perhaps that’s why her dad gave her $100k in business seed money and my dad still regrets paying for my English degree. *sigh*
