I was Made in Taiwan and moved to the USA when I was 10 1/2 years old. I spent 7+ years at the New Jersey Shore (where I still think is one of the best places to live in the States), and graduated from Wall High School. I went to Lehigh University and got a B.S. in Computer Science, minor in Art, and a M.S. in Educational Technology. For a while, I was taking art courses during my spare time, hoping to obtain a B.F.A. some day.

In 2000, I left my job and backpacked around the world for 14 months. I started a new job in Feb 2003 as a Senior Developer / IT Manager with a reinsurance company in Bermuda and hope to stay here for a while.

My many hobbies include Exploring Jungles, Snorkeling, Nature, Ecology, Camping, Hiking, Tennis, Volleyball, Photography, Tropical Fish Keeping and Collecting, Travel, Gardening, Kayaking, Ultimate Frisbee, Arts, Movies, Theaters, and Crafts.
