May Li
May Li was a finalist in 2006 in China Central Television's Win In China (Chinese ying1 zai4 zhong1guo2), which is similar to the television show The Apprentice (TV series) in the United States.
In June 2006, Li was only one of six people from the United States chosen to participate in the nationwide game, which initially had more than 120,000 contestants. They traveled to Beijing, China, where for two weeks they participated in simulated business games and tests of physical endurance, including a grueling hike on the Great Wall of China. After two weeks of intensive contests, the original number of contestants was whittled down to 36, including Ms. Li.
In August 2006, Li founded the non-profit North American Chinese Entrepreneur Association (NACEA), which seeks to create a home where motivated Chinese American and other minority professionals with entrepreneurial spirit in North America can share their business IDeaS and experiences and help one another build business plans and teams.
Li currently resides in Cranford, New Jersey and manages her own business.
