About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to have fun, learn, and have no regrets!!

ABOUT ME

I grew up in a small city about an hour away from LA. Around graduation time, I saw all my friends that graduated from college going into jobs they hated with long hours. I decided to move to China to experience something different and get to know my family in China before it was too late!

PHILOSOPHY

Live, Laugh, Love and Learn.

Interests

I enjoy all kinds of music (maybe except that hard rock screaming stuff) and I like to play the piano. I'm currently teaching myself the violin. I also love a good book and learning about new things, including religion and philosophy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I jumped out of a plane and free-falled for 60 seconds from 13,500 feet before pulling the parachute (had an instructor attached to me of course!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach somebody a tiny bit of Cantonese.. I know more than enough to get by, but I still don't understand some of it. As to what I want to learn? Anything I don't know! More music, philosophy, practical stuff..
