With a heavy heart, I share this tribute to my father, who passed away from Parkinson’s dementia. Known for his integrity and perseverance, his legacy lives on in quiet, impactful, lasting ways. Fred was an exceptional father, and I remain deeply grateful to be his child.

Dad was a mechanical engineer by training, later becoming a restauranteur — roles that reflected his resourcefulness, precision, and resolute work ethic. He was the only one among his siblings who moved our family to Taipei, then Texas, believing that better education would open wider futures for his six daughters. He worked tirelessly for us, teaching through example rather than words: saving rubber bands from produce, repurposing everything he could, and proudly paying off the mortgage in just seven years through patience and discipline. Even bread ties held meaning in his hands, reused in his garden to help beans climb and grow. His care was practical, steady, and rooted in love. Now, with tear filled eyes, even the smallest things carry him with me.

My sisters traveled from Taiwan, and together we laid his ashes to rest beside my mother. As we grieve this profound loss, we are also filled with gratitude — for his sacrifices, his lessons, and the life he gave us. Thank you all for your understanding, your support, and for holding us in your thoughts during this time.

Happy 40th Year Anniversary to Les Dames d’Escoffier Dallas. What an amazing event celebrating the future and honoring our past. Super grateful for this international organization of women leaders in food, beverage, hospitality, and such beautiful community of sisterhood. Photo Credit: Kathy Tran

Grateful to be accepted into the Clinton School of Public Service Graduate Program at The University of Arkansas!

Humbled to receive the generous scholarship to attend this distinguished institution. Thank you , for investing in the growth of my leadership journey.

It means a lot to share this honor with you, especially on President Clinton’s birthday today, as I firmly believe in the mission of this program - “The Clinton School’s Master of Public Service degree is grounded in an unshakeable belief: our common humanity is a powerful force for transformative, sustainable change”.

CSPS gives students the knowledge and experience to further their careers in the areas of nonprofit, governmental, volunteer, or private sector service. While learning valuable lessons in the classroom, Clinton School students also complete “hands-on” public service projects in the field, ranging from local communities to international projects on all of the world’s six inhabited continents.

A two-year graduate program with a “real world” curriculum, the Clinton School is located on the grounds of the William J. Clinton Presidential Center and Park in Little Rock, Ark. The school embodies former President Clinton’s vision of building leadership in civic engagement and enhancing people’s capacity to work across boundaries.

I look forward to discovering potential and deepening knowledge in Public Service at the Clinton School. Thanks to everyone who offered your tremendous support!
