Met 2025-04-28 17:00 at JW Marriott Hong Kong, Hong Kong.

Grew up in California, worked in tech then for Oracle for many years, which is how he ended up here because Oracle sent him on jobs to Singapore for many months, then Hong Kong in 2003, and happily stayed. Arriving after SARS, people are always pessimistic after a pandemic or big change, but Hong Kong always comes back. China's vast diverse regions keep it competitive, as the regions try to outdo each other.
