The Lead's introductory sentence was concise and clearly describes the article's topic. It includes who Bui is and her career choice. The article's major sections include Bui's early life and education, career, recognition, popular culture, and personal life.

Content evaluation
The article's content is relevant to the topic and is up-to-date. I believe that the section that is named "in popular culture" does not belong in the article because it doesn't mention Jenny Bui, I feel like it is just a random sentence thrown into the article.
