Well, it's a kitten right? Maybe it's mad because it's teething or something is wrong with her teeth. Maybe you have some kind of smell on your fingers. I know this trick is for dogs but....
You give them a hairbrush to chew on. Whenever they try to bite on it, they will recieve an unharmful but shocking poke from the bristles on the hairbrush.

Say "No!" and leave her alone. But other times, be nice to her. For the boss thing- have a staring contest with her. Seriously, make her look away first. Cats see it as whoever looks away first is weaker. I do it all the time with my cat and he looks away after like 6 seconds, he knows I'm boss. :)

there is a product called bitter apple, its a spray (for training) if she tries to bite you spray some on your finger and put it in her mouth
she will hate the taste but it works. make sure you be consistant with it

Just because your kitten bites you, it doesn't mean that she doesn't like you. I have a new kitten as well, and he bites. He is a very sweet cat though, so he's not being mean. Kittens bite because they are teething, and also because it is their way of playing.
