Kathy Wang is an author, whose debut novel Family Trust was published in 2018. She was raised in Los Altos, the northern part of Silicon Valley, to an engineer mother and government-worker father. She received a B.A. from the University of California-Berkeley and an M.B.A. from Harvard.

After grad school, Wang returned to California to work for Intel Corp., moving on to Seagate Technology where she became a product manager. Then she put her business career on hold following the birth of her son, and in early 2017 turned to writing. She was determined to finish a novel before giving birth to her second child—a deadline she acheved six months later when she received a call back the day from a literary agent on the very day she returned home from the hospital with her newborn daughter.

Wang and her young family live in Los Altos, California. (Adapted from various online sources. Retrieved 11/13/2018.)
