I’m not sure if anyone still visits personal websites in 2025.
And I’m not sure if a website is still useful in 2025.
I won’t be updating my exhibition and award record here.
I used to, but not anymore.
To me, it’s just a list without much warmth.
It’s like printing your CV and hanging it on the wall.
Nobody really does that.
But since you clicked “About” and ended up here, thank you.
I’m glad to meet you.

I like staring at lakes or the ocean, so I take photos and make books.
I like listening to waves and trees, so I shoot videos and recordings, often collaborating with orchestra musicians.
My day job is college teaching. It doesn’t pay much.
So I also work in commercial and editorial photography.
If you need a photographer, feel free to reach out.
I’m bald, so I often wear hats. (It’s not meant to be impolite.)
Before photography, I was a professional Cantonese dim sum chef.
Yes, I still cook very well.
One thing I can tell you: I already have plenty of exhibitions, grants, and awards.
If you need the long version of my CV, just email me.
Thank you for visiting my website.
If you are in Ohio, let me know. I will buy you a coffee.
