Wesley R Wong

Wesley R. Wong is the adopted son of Honey and H.K. Wong. Mr. Chinatown is his first book, written to honor his dad’s spirit, accomplishments, and legacy as a prominent businessman and civic leader in Chinatown and San Francisco. He is an Eagle Scout and Silver Beaver with the Boy Scouts of America, and recipient of the Bronze Pelican and Saint George Emblems for his service to the National Catholic Committee on Scouting. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science from the University of California, Santa Barbara, and a Master of Business Administration from Santa Clara University. After 34 years in the computer industry developing and managing software, he took an early retirement to focus on his passion for glass art. Wesley creates stained glass, mosaics, and fused glass art and develops new techniques from his Glasstastique Studio in San Jose, California. He travels to various studios around the country to teach workshops in glass art. During the statewide lockdown due to the Coronavirus pandemic, Wesley has revived his juggling skills, a hobby that began in the 1980s but had gone dormant for over 30 years.
