About Me:
Born in Taiwan (Feb. 21st, 1977).
Came to America in 1983 when I was 6.
Grew up here in the US.
Home in San Jose.
Graduated from UCLA in June '99.
(B.A.in psychology and Asian American Studies
specialization).
Graduated from Talbot School of Theology (seminary) in May '02.
(Master of Divinity - Pastoral & General Ministries
Emphasis).
Part of the original cast of LCC Theatre Co. at UCLA.
Was member of ACA at UCLA.
Involved with AACF at UCLA and with Omnikoi/AACF at Biola.
Attended Venice Santa Monica Free Methodist Church, EFC
Harvest LA, and Evergreen LA during my college years.
Interned at Monterey Park Chinese Baptist Church (MPCBC)
during my time at Talbot.
Currently serving as a youth minister at Chinese Church in
Christ - San Jose (http://www.ccic-sj.org).
Got married on Sept 3rd, 2005 to Esther.
I love CHINA ... her land, her beauty, and most of
all...her people.
The two things I value most in life are my relationship
with Jesus and my relationships with His people. Christ's
love for me is my anchor and my hope. Investing in the
lives of those around me and allowing them to invest in my
life is my joy. This is what ministry is all about. It is
about being in a love relationship with God and allowing
Him to use you to bring His love to those around you. It
is about being so filled by God that you overflow to
others. It is about what the Salvation Army
proclaims, "Heart to God, hand to man."

he's 26 years old and still acts like a
little kid, isnt that ADORABLE!!
Thomas, is the coolest and most funnest
guy to be around with, we've been
family friends for a couple of years
now, and FINALLY he convinced me to
attend his youth group on Friday's,
it's been a lot of fun THANK YOU
THOMAS! (Look at his sexy picture so
handsome and sophisticated, his g.f is
one lucky girl!!) hehe =)
the ONLY person I will ever call
Emperor.
sure...he can be funny. sure...he can
be entertaining. sure...he can be a
riot.
but that's not why he's a solid
preacher. It's b/c he gives people the
word, in all its beauty...in all the
pain of being rebuked...in all its
truth. never stop that, bro.
If God is, indeed, in control of all
the ends...then we must be concerned
only with pursuing the means he's laid
out before us.
let us be faithful to him and not to
the gods of entertainment, numbers,
worldly success...but let him work in
his way...and let that be our crown.
I'm the one from his past. J/K...
sorta. Thomas played Theo, my
boyfriend, for LCC's first production
of "Treehouse Bachelor Society." Theo
(his character name) was brilliantly
funny and, the audience loved him
dearly. No doubt that I had lots of
fun acting with him and others... Yeah,
those were the days... Hope you are
doing well, Mr. Talented!
fwend and also my novio. He's so
special that I actually wrote a
testimonial for him...i didnt do that
for anyone else! Anyways, he's taught
me alot about some important things in
life and some crazy things that are
just entertaining. We are the non-
exclusive couple that enjoys hanging
out with others often. I think that is
cool...no need to be all private and
mushy. Couples that are mushy with each
other make me gag. But we on the other
hand make me smile rather than gag!
Yay! Two thumbs for us! Woo hoo...
while, Emperor Thomas used to be one
of my best friends in college. He is
the friendliest, funniest, most
genuine person I know. Not only that,
but he can cook a mean ketchup fried
rice. And as far as I'm concerned, his
music videos are better than any of
the ones on MTV. Everyone who knows
Thomas reveres him, enjoys his
company, and adores him. Including me.
serious guy I've ever met....
yeahrightgetalife!
Thomas and I used to give our other
roommates, Jerry and Will, quite a
show in the middle of the night, but I
won't go into details. I can't
believe how many crazy videos I made
with him. Someday, they will come
back and haunt me.... actually,
nevermind, they're already haunting me
right now. Anyway, Thomas is a good
friend that you can always rely on and
all those other things those other
testimonials say about him.
still hang out! he has really helped
me become the dorky person i am now.
wait, i've been always a dork. it's
always fun hanging out with him because
i can be totally free. i remember
riding in the back of chan ho's car
with thomas being towed all the way
from kettleman city to san jose. we've
had many "encounters" with the police.
3 come to mind already. anyways, he's
a cool guy and has a heart for God and
people. so, when are you getting
married?
