He has taught a variety of institute and religion courses, and his research is focused on the global worldwide History of the Church (particularly Asia and Oceania) and the translation of the Book of Mormon into the various languages of the world.

He was born in Taiwan and grew up in Brazil, before living in the US where he was baptized one week after meeting the missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ. He speaks multiple languages and loves the variety of food, people, languages, and cultures of the world. He has served in various church callings, including missionary in the California Ventura Mission, stake president, bishop, high councilor, mission presidency, temple ordinance worker, institute and early morning seminary teacher, church history advisor, and church curriculum (working on the first “Come, Follow Me” curriculum).

They have co-authored many articles and books together (including “Voice of the Saints in Taiwan” and “Voice of the Saints in Mongolia”) and produce content for the Chinese channel of Scripture Central. Their greatest blessing is their testimony of Jesus Christ and the restored gospel, their love for each other and their children/grandchild.
