East Bay child prodigy paints for a purpose, challenges ABC7 News anchor Dion Lim to math duel

PIEDMONT, Calif. (KGO) -- An East Bay kid prodigy is kicking off 2021 by showcasing her artwork, which has raised thousands for a non-profit which helps patients with life threatening diseases.
From the moment you meet Juliette Leong at her family's Piedmont home, surrounded by her nature-inspired artwork, it's apparent she is not your average 4-and-a-half year old.
She is bold and talkative and converses almost like an adult, but with a child-like voice and playfulness. This mini-member of MENSA (yes, she tested and her family even provides her MENSA card as proof!) has a lot of hobbies like swimming, martial arts, rock climbing and telling jokes.
