I was there most recently in December 2007 for business. I lived in China from 1990-1991. I have been told by strangers in China that my Chinese is quite good, and, if they were not looking at my face (I'm American), they would believe I was a native of China. I've been mistaken on the phone for a native of China. I have given presentations on multiple language software, translated software to Chinese, and managed translation projects. general computer I have been working with and teaching basic computer skills for 20 years.

My particular expertise is in the internal arts, qigong, taiji, xingyi, and bagua -- individual forms practice and applications for self defense. My students have also done well at competition, taking first and second place at national and international events. Those students who elected not to participate in competitions also appreciated the comprehensive and personalized instruction I provided to help them achieve their self-development goals.
