About 

Mason Ng is now a licensed architect in CA, a native Californian. His passion is like all all people here, architecture. Though, always busy with work, he strives, best of his ability, to comprehend and study the impact of technology on the field of architecture. He is always striving hard to be fluent in most software and design tools.

While adjusting to the speed of China, his talent of problem solving and ingenuity allows him to understand what China is becoming to the world and how to market projects in this environment. His work experience and understanding of architecture will be useful in any office. 

When he is not designing or working at the office, Mason is a foodie, who loves to try new types of cuisine, from exotic food, such as fried scorpion  to just pp&j. Mason also enjoys the delight of cooking and baking when he has the time too. He is also an avid  traveler and photographer.  He has traveled to more than 15 countries and 32 cities outside of the United States. He loves to meet people and enjoys life.
