I have a diverse background in sustainability, documentary filmmaking, technology, business, and oil and gas. I've worked with Chevron, Expressworks, and The Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE). In 2021, I retired from full-time consulting to pursue my vision, mission, and passion for sustainability and regenerative practice. I publish, present, and mentor on this topic. Professional Work My professional career started as a documentary filmmaker, producing award-winning programs for US television. I switched to the technology and business sector in the late 90s and helped launch high-speed Internet service in Houston. At this time, I also completed a personal project, The Living Tree, a documentary about my family history from China to America. In 2008, I joined Expressworks and supported Chevron's major projects, which enabled me to learn about the oil and gas industry and its challenges, especially their environmental and social impacts. I joined SPE in 2015, and co-designed the Gaia Sustainability Program, which educates and empowers oil and gas professionals to adopt sustainability principles and practices. I became a 2023-2024 SPE Distinguished Lecturer on Regenerative Practice for Oil and Gas and have received several awards and recognition for my work. Community Service I have long been passionate about social justice and sustainability and have been actively involved in various initiatives and organizations that support these causes most of my adult life. -social justice I worked in the 5th Ward Enrichment Program, a nonprofit providing after-school and summer programs for inner-city youth in Houston. I served on the Mayor’s Resilience Committee for the City of Houston, which makes recommendations to the city on how to prepare for and recover from environmental shocks and stresses. Since 2015, I have taught children about gardening, nutrition, and environmental stewardship through an organic garden in my local community.-sustainability I developed a private investment strategy that uses the power of capital markets to promote sustainability. I am a certified Climate Fresk facilitator and Climate Pitch speaker, which means that I can keynote and lead workshops on climate change and its solutions. I am also certified in sustainability, neuro-leadership coaching, and foresight; disciplines that help me implement sustainability strategies and practices, understand human behavior, and anticipate future trends. I hold an MBA from San Francisco Institute of Architecture, and a BA in philosophy from the University of Illinois.
