Hi I'm Tom
About Me
I'm a first-generation American, the son of Chinese parents who were born in the Philippines. I've lived in New York City, Manila, Cambridge England, Cambridge Massachusetts, Silicon Valley, Utah, and the Los Angeles area. I hold a PhD in computational biophysics. I'm married, and we have three children who make us glow with pride.
Why I am a Mormon
A good friend in graduate school shared the Book of Mormon with me and offered that it was the word of God - another testament of Jesus Christ. I decided to take that seriously. After many months of taking an unreasonably left-brained approach to that big question - a foible of which I'm guilty almost every day - I finally followed the admonition to "ask God... if these things are not true... with a sincere heart, with real intent". To my surprise, I received a clear answer. God does answer prayers.
How I live my faith
I can't think of much in my life that isn't deeply influenced by my faith.
