A journey of a thousand miles must begin with one step, Benjamin Disraeli said "like all great travelers, I have seen more than I can remember and I remember more than I can see". Let me help you "see" what you may not remember and "remember" what you may not see!

"WE TURN MEMORIES INTO ART"

I started my journey when I was 12 years old, when my parents sent me to Guayaquil, Ecuador from Taipei, Taiwan. It was in Ecuador that I started to study architecture, but finished my undergraduate study in Madrid, then was accepted to the University of Pennsylvania for my graduate studies. After graduating, I found work in Chicago with the international firm of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. I moved to Louisville in 1982, worked for a local architectural firm for 2 years, then started my own Design Build firm and practice till 1999. In 2000 I transitioned into a total different career in the investment field. I am semi-retired now and back on exploring the creative passion that I missed for so long.”
