Early Life

Born in Soc Trang, he was a pharmacist in Saigon, Vietnam, but fled in 1975 with his wife, nine-year old son, seven-year old daughter, and sister, after the Fall of Saigon brought the Vietnam War to an end; he first settled in Arkansas' Fort Chaffee region before moving to Lincoln, Nebraska to attend pharmacy school again at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, from which he graduated in May 1977. Following his graduation, he lived briefly in Missouri and Connecticut, but eventually gravitated to Westminster, California due to the warmer weather and friends who had preceded him there.
