Jennifer moved to the United States from mainland China when she was 21 years old in 2002. She has been in the United States for more than eight years now. She explains her reasons for coming to the United States:
I was one of the people who had a bad life. That is why I came to the United States. […] After I graduated from some high school, it was really difficult for me to find a job with my diploma in China. There were too many people, but not many jobs. In addition, many people had higher education than me. Therefore, I really was thinking about going to the United States.”
