Traveling is another life for me. As far as I remember I was an explorer. I studied English in London, U.K. during the year of 1996.

My first backpaking traveling around Europe in 1997 turned my life around. I, Psychology major, decided to pursue an artist's career.

I went back to Europe in 1999 and explored the north part of U.K. Scotland was as beautiful as people said it was.

I traveled Greece and the islands of Greece in 2000.

I traveled Capadocia and Istanbul, Turkey in 2000.

I conducted research in Tokyo, Japan in 2002 with scholarship from University of Iowa, FLAS and Stanley Foundation. I discovered Wabi-Sabi aesthetic concept.

RAGBRAI is a bike ride across the state of Iowa(about 450 miles) starting from Council Bluffs to Burlington, IA. The ride ends with dipping your bike's front tire in the Mississippi river.

I taught University of Dayton students in China during the summer of 2005 and 2006. I taught Introduction to Visual Arts and Visual Resource.

I enjoy the aroma of green tea and the calm tea ceremony of all kinds. I became comfortable with Chinese tea ritual after the trip to China.

I was introduced to this wonderful world of felt making in summer, 2006. I soon adept at the technique and apply to my creative research.
