I was born and raised in Hong Kong under the British colonial rule. I grew up with my younger brother, 2 years younger than me.
In 1993, with the memories of the protests in Tiananmen Square in 1989 still fresh in our minds, and overshadowed by the uncertainty of what will happen after the handover in 1997, my parents decided to send me and my brother away from home to study abroad in the UK. There I obtained my 10 GCSEs, 3 A-Levels, and then in the summer of 2001, I graduated with a bachelor degree in computer science from University College London.
Since the beginning of 2005, I have been back in Hong Kong, working as a system analyst for a charity, while studying part-time to be an IT auditor.
While I am not in front of the computer, I play 5-a-side football, nearly every Sunday, if the weather permits. Apart from football, badminton and swimming are also my favourite sports.
