I was born in China, the oldest of 5 children. I spent my early days in China's remote country areas riding horses and fishing.

Many years later, I went to New Zealand for a short visit and fell in love with the country. I thought to myself: "This is where I want to live the rest of my life with my family."
Once my decision was made I sold my business and applied to emigrate to New Zealand with my family. It was one of the biggest steps in my life -- moving to a new country to start a new and peaceful life.
My friends consider me an ideas and inventive man. I enjoy renovations and the outdoors, including: gardening, carpentry and home improvement. I also enjoy playing pool, and table tennis.
I see life as a game. I like winning in a game, it makes me feel like a king.
