CURRENT MISSION

Learning Mandarin in Beijing while acting in Chinese film and TV shows.

ABOUT ME

My name is pronounced "Ken-in" "Hep-ee." I used to be a chemist, but now I'm an actor. I was testing antibiotics in a lab when I decided I wanted to be more adventurous with my 20s, and I haven't looked back! I love learning things about new cultures, I go to comedy shows and movies a lot, and I'm an avid exerciser!

Currently living in China, learning Mandarin and acting. Right now, I'm the Lay's Chips guy in America, and I'm soon to be the "Bai Jiu" guy of China. I'd love to share the insights that I now have about the film industry in the Far East!

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Played classical piano while blindfolded and hula-hooping on The Ellen Show for an audience of 8 million people.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can share with someone the power of classical music, as I play it by ear. I can also entertain with magic tricks, help teach beginning Mandarin, and Tae Kwon Do. I would like to learn more Chinese, and more about photography gear.
