Rick Chen's Blurbs |
About me:
This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? using original artwork by Marah Johnson. Go get one!
about me:
I am an entrepreneur. I am a veteran of the United States Army. He graduated from University of California, Berkeley with a Bachelor degree in Philosophy. He lives in suburb of Los Angeles with his family.
From a weak teenager to an infantry solider. From a C student to a Berkeley Graduate; from a fired sales person to personally responsible for over $100 million portfolio.; from a selfish little brat to a compassionate human being, I transformed into the possibility of love and responsibility.
In 1992, I left China with my mom to the United States. I did not speak a word of English when he first got here. After graduating from high school with a 2.0 GPA I enlisted myself in the United States Army. In the Army I found out it is the best place to practice conversational English and I spoke English fluently 6 months into it.
Since the age of 16 while still in high school, I started working as a busboy in a Cantonese restaurant. All along I had a series of jobs, actor, store clerk, delivery guy, legal assistant, quality control, computer part salesperson, cell phone salesperson, real estate agent. During most of this period I was still in school. Although I was able to speak English fluently now, however my English writing skill is still very substandard. After failing the college English class 4 times and passing I was finally accepted by 4 top ranked universities. Finally I graduated from the #1 ranked public university, University of California, Berkeley.
Thereafter, I was with General Electric. During my time with GE’s Commercial Distribution Finance Division, ranked #1 in Fortune 500’s Diversified Financial Sector, I served as territory representative for Orange County and was personally responsible for client portfolio in excess of over $100 million.
I live in Los Angeles with his family. During spare time, I enjoy reading, working out, running, hiking, traveling, and spending time with friends and family. ..
