Deputy Managing Editor, Weekend and Explore L.A.
What I cover
I lead our weekend and Explore L.A. coverage — what I like to think of as the fun beat. I feel lucky to write, edit and produce content that catches my eye. I’ve chased down the origin of a Japanese cola named “Los Angeles” and created a podcast exploring how the L.A. diaspora helped shape K-pop.
My background
I’m from Hong Kong. I am fluent in Cantonese and can hold a conversation in Mandarin.
My goals
I want to bring more stories about the region — from quirky factoids to cool happenings and hidden histories — to our audience.
Best way to reach me
I’d love to hear your ideas about what we should cover next. Email is best. Reach me at
