Chris established excellent fundamentals and skills in table-tennis from the age of seven until the age of fourteen. He was living in Canton, China at the time and would have a daily regimen of training from 6 AM to 7:15 AM and from 3:00 PM until 6 PM. He did not find the training fun at the time but in retrospect, the training was the most unforgettable memory of his life. Chris wished he had taken table-tennis seriously during the peak years of an athlete's life, age 15 until age 25, but stopped playing during those years. At the age of 26 and living in California, Chris played tournaments in California but with informal training, did not perform upto his expectations. At the age of 29, he stopped playing again. Now at the age of 32, he has begun playing in his on-again off-again playing years. He wants to play against a high-level of players to develop a set of winning tactics and techniques. Northern California tournament play will provide him with that opportunity. Chris is a material planner at a telecommunication contract-manufacturing company in San Jose.
