I’m from beautiful Manhattan Beach, CA, where my Asian parents forced me to play the violin every day.

I’m the founder of Five9 and DoctorBase, co-founder of 6connect, and an advisor to Halloo.
I try to stay a busy boy.

Every day in startups seems like a challenging puzzle, but I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I find humor helps the process, so please don’t be offended if I offend you.

My Mom welcomes my niece Naomi to the World.

She was so proud of my little brother Stan and his wife.

She then turned to me and said, “You? When?”

 

San Francisco’s annual Weird Fest is, well, weird.

More weirdness.

It was about 80 degrees and I felt sorry for the guy in the chicken suit.

 

My buddy Dane cooked me my favorite desert (pumpkin pie) from scratch! Thanks Dane-o!
