Our Team

I have an incredible team behind me who has helped me bring this project to light. These talented people include an illustrator, a voice artist, graphic designers, a filmmaker, educators in the Chinese teaching community and fellow children’s book authors who have been amazing cheerleaders, mentors and coaches throughout this journey.

A British Born Chinese (BBC) who grew up in the beating heart of London, I am a bit of a global nomad who recently moved from the quiet suburbs of Dallas, Texas to the countryside of Cambridgeshire, England raising two energetic, little boys.

During the Lunar New Year of the Tiger in 2022, I launched a successful crowdfunding campaign with a dream of creating something to foster Chinese language and culture in a meaningful way. I wanted to help families like mine, nurture the minds and build a more worldly perspective for our children.

And so I created Fish Tales & Rhymes.
