| Favourite Quote: |
"On a given day, a given circumstance, you think you have a limit. And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit, and you think, 'Okay, this is the limit'. And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high."
-Ayrton Senna

Born and raised in Hong Kong, I started my passion in cars ever since I was a child. I travel around the globe to compete at the high levels of motorsports e.g. World Touring Car Championship, Asian Touring Car Series, Skip Barber MX5 Cup Championship, Japan Fuji Champion Race Series, enduro races and time attack series. Besides, I participate in professional drifting competitions in the US and Southeast Asia, and have won and placed podium finishes.
My natural ability and consistency in understanding a vehicle's limits alongside my strong determination to win under the most extreme circumstances have become the necessity in my success. Whether I am behind the wheel in road racing, time attack or drifting, my determination for being the best holds strong through the final lap.
My energy and enthusiasm will bring positive energy to the race team I work with and will always be a strong representative for sponsors on the professional circuit.
