🇺🇸 English Version
Dom Jones was born in the challenging streets of Compton, California, raised by a mother of thirteen children. Growing up in poverty and homelessness, she refused to be defined by her circumstances — earning a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and pursuing advanced studies in Communication Studies, Women's Studies, and Philosophy across the American Midwest and Southern California.
With nearly 20 years in fitness, yoga, and wellness advocacy, Dom understands the deep connection between physical and emotional health. She is fluent in five languages — English, Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Tagalog — enabling her to bridge cultures and communities with ease.
In 2022, Dom appeared on CBS's The Amazing Race (Season 34), bringing her message of empathy and cross-cultural understanding to a global audience. During the 2024 U.S. elections, she was a historic candidate for the California State Assembly (District 72), securing over 100,000 votes.
Today, she has chosen Taiwan as her home — turning an extraordinary life journey into a gift for every student she meets.
