About
Tracey Wong 黃麗塋 is a Teochew-American interdisciplinary artist that lights up and inspires spaces through her art. She was born and raised in Seattle, WA in the Beacon Hill neighborhood, raised by her loving parents who were refugees from Vietnam.
Tracey’s global presence in the dance world is marked by her multiple hats as a competitor, judge, teacher, and performer. This past year, she won the title of Ladies of Hip Hop 20th Anniversary – Waacking Champion and Rhythm Warehouse – Freestyle Champion in New York City. In the same year, she became the Vancouver Street Dance Festival – Wh/aacking Champion for her second time in Vancouver, BC.
In addition to her dance career, Tracey is an emerging singer-songwriter. Her debut singles, ‘We Got This’ (2023) and ‘Kosmic Glow’ (2024), mark the beginning of her musical journey, with more to come as she continues to explore and share her creative vision.
Her gift for creating an inviting and joyful atmosphere extends to her work as DJ Mac Tray, where her eclectic sets have energized dance scenes around the Pacific Northwest, including events like C-ID Block Party, Columbia City Beatwalk, Azn Glo @ Neumos, Deep In The Underground (Vancouver, BC), and Rebound Kiki Ball (Portland, OR). Her deepest joy about spinnin’ is sharing a vibration that can bring people together to dance, heal, and enjoy freely.
She would not be here today without the support of her loved ones and elders that have paved the way.
