About

 
Untitled.png

This is a picture of my 6-year-old self with my mother before she immigrated to the U.S. from Beijing, China. We were reunited when she brought me to New York in 1994. Since then, I’ve lived on the West Coast, in the Midwest, and the Pacific Northwest, picking up what I’m told are many accents along the way. I like to think of it as a blend of Chinese, New York, and "Minny" 🤷🏻‍♂️.

According to StrengthsFinder, I’m an Includer, Relator, Positivity, Activator, and Arranger. I firmly believe that culture eats strategy for breakfast 🥞🍳🧇.

With over 15 years of experience across the NFL, NBA, WNBA, NHL, and arena entertainment—working with both teams and agencies—I’m continually learning and growing.

My passion lies in the community work I’m involved in, including supporting several non-profits across Seattle, New York, and Minneapolis. I’m proud to serve as a trustee at the Science Museum of Minnesota, an advisor for Appetite for Change, an alumnus of City Year Seattle, and a member of the Career Board at Minneapolis College.
