Jasmine Kong is a Student Athlete at Westcliff University, who values family, giving back and staying humble. As a child, Jasmine turned to sports to get away from the bad environment at home. She was practically raised by her late grandma (Ma Yey) who helped her stay connected to her Cambodian roots. Jasmine, one of the few Khmer American Student Athletes, talks about the importance of representation as well as recognizing her family, mentors, and coaches who have all played an integral role in her life.
