Arriving in Los Angeles from Hong Kong at age 13, Jimmy learned English by watching BET RapCity for three hours a day, worked as a strip club DJ while pursuing his comedy career, and finally became a proud US citizen after over a decade. Featuring those and many other hilarious stories, How to American mocks stereotypes while offering tongue in cheek advice on pursuing the American dreams of fame, fortune, and strippers.
