Traveling to a different American city every 2-3 days over a 3 week span is extremely exhausting…but it was again eye opening and ever expanding in my “life calling and purpose”. I now more then ever feel I belong in China. I want to bridge Chinese and American internet and ecommerce…its such a challenge…and I love challenges! Here are some …
My twitter friend Zee, self published author, airport book signing!
Another blog I’m typing up on my 15 hour flight from San Francisco to Beijing, I just finished reading Zee Gorman’s book “Snowdrops and the Night Warriors” book two of the Altethlon Chronicles. I met Zee on twitter maybe a year or so ago, and we chatted about my being in China, and her being a Chinese now living in …
Remembering Why I Became An Entrepreneur, Thanks Greg!

Finding Acceptance Being In China, Quality Visit with Mom + Dad
Many of my friends ask me, what do my parents say about me being over in China. It has been a bit of a transition, honestly when I first came to China, as I have said in previous blogs, my parents had a hard time…..I left a quality highly sought after job on Wall Street, and I moved to China …
Walking Through a Shopping Mall …Market Research For Chinese Factories
Man….its hard to shop in America after spending four years in China! Everything I look at I try to calculate the manufacturer’s price and landed cost! One of the things some of my friends and business colleagues in China asked me to do was to go to a shopping mall in America, snap photos of products along with price tags, …
Reflections On Steve Jobs Death….Losing a Great American Entrepreneur
I have blogged about looking in the mirror every morning which is from Steve Jobs….we have to live each day like it will be our last, we have to look into the mirror in the morning, when we are washing our face and thinking about what we will do that day. I still try to force myself to think that …
USA is making me focus, and realize –> I belong in Asia, feeling…guilty
Coming back to America always is a reflecting point for me, meeting my friends and family, seeing where they are in their life, their goals, dreams ….and of course they always ask me “what is it you do, exactly”? And I have been lectured to, as a friend, to get a focus… some read this blog (Ken!), and they do …
Hustling NYC, Too Much, Too Little Time
Seriously, I overextend myself and then get all crazy (emotional roller coaster) . This year’s USA trip was much more organized and planed than *** last year’s mania. But still, I overbooked myself, and feel like I let a bunch of people down….rushing through meetings and trying to get too many people together at the same time. Here is a …
Hanging @ Hoboken, NJ’s First Coworking Space – @MissionFifty
After Julian’s wedding I ended up in Hoboken for a few days, meet my Stevens friends and professors, and some business contacts I have made over the years doing online business. Monday morning I was looking for somewhere to work, and after quickly getting frustrated with coffee shops not having wifi, seats, etc I went and google searched “Hoboken Coworking”. …
My friend Julian + Tanya’s Jewish wedding
Sounds like a movie title, “my friend’s jewish wedding”. I’m a day behind in my blogging on this wedding, man that wedding was worthy of being on television – they held no strings back! The main reason I flew back to America was for this wedding, the last of the “crew” in my college ring of circles…Julian got hitched! A …
Visit to Los Angeles Ecommerce fulfillment center
One of the main reasons I am in Los Angeles is to visit various logistics and ecommerce warehouses I have been working with while in China. Logistics, sourcing, supply chain, warehousing, inventory control = OPERATIONS that I am weak in. I believe we all need to be open and honest as to what our strong points are and what our …
So Hard To Get a USA SIM…American Telecom Companies suck!
Seriously, one of the worst things about coming to USA each time is figuring out a phone plan….I think almost any other country I have been to in the world, and I have been to UK, Italy, China, Philippines, Thailand, etc….I just go to a 7-11 or a newspaper stand and buy a SIM card for like around $5usd and …
Blog Issues, New Blog Comment System Disqus + New Template soon
Was wondering why the blog wasn’t getting comments for the past week or so – SOME DATABASE problem…so my team helped me install Discqus blog comment systems, so its hosted on their server and more “social” where you can use their login on this blog and other blogs. I didn’t choose to use “facebook” connect blog comments for a couple …

Again blogging on my mac air from a bus in hong kong….I guess it is pretty amazing I can type as I have a screaming cantonese women yelling in the phone behind me, crying baby in front of me, and a fat old guy with his setback pushed back up against this laptop screen….but ***** testing your limits is key…and …

Typing this sunday afternoon, waiting for the bus from dongguan to shenzhen….what a long and perspective-building weekend! Started on Friday night, rushing to catch last bus to da lang district of dongguan from Longgan district of Shenzhen.
