VC: Tell us about yourself.
LJ: I am a Canadian living in Hong Kong via NYC. I am the Co-founder/Co-owner of RONIN and Yardbird Hong Kong. I'm also part of the founding team of Sunday's Spirits - an independent brand of Japanese alcoholic beverages, including sake, shochu, and whisky. I have worked in hospitality my entire life (my parents ran a Cantonese-Canadian restaurant for 33 years) and I truly fell in love with the industry during my time at Nobu in New York in the early 2000s. In addition to my role in the restaurants, I also lead HECHO (a digital marketing and communication agency) and teach yoga (when I have time). I usually split my time between Hong Kong and Los Angeles, make time to sweat daily, and live for my two awesome children Lili Sunday and Ronin Abe.
