I was born in Taipei, Taiwan in 1964. I spent the largest part of my childhood in San Angelo, Texas, and I went to high school in Heathsville, Virginia. I have lived in several cities in the United States, including Dallas, Texas, and Las Vegas, Nevada. I've had many jobs, including work as a day laborer, as an assistant manager of a couple of retail stores, and as a computer programmer. Currently I live with my family in Richmond, Virginia.
