In a 2019 interview with Forbes, she spoke about working with NBC’s American comedy “Sunnyside“. She said:
It is really cool because the show is about immigrants. Both of my parents are immigrants and everyone in the writers’ room is either an immigrant themselves, first-generation or married to an immigrant or connected to the immigrant experience in some sense. It’s such a nice and supportive room. It’s cool getting to be in that space and imagine a world where shows like this don’t feel rare. In addition to that also it makes me laugh.
