About the Author: Jason Lin studied Engineering in Nanking, and later English Language in Suzhou, and finally got his mater in English from Shanghai International Studies University. He pursued an advanced degree in Rhetoric and Linguistics in America, but ended up with MBA with concentration on MIS. Instead of pursuing a management career, his passion about engineering "flared up" and motivated him to pursue an advanced degree in Computer Science. He finally realized that he was also a husband and father. Being a professional student, he could not raise his family. So he found a job while working on his Ph. D program. Since then, he has been in IT management for more than 20 years. He is the Vice Chair of Chinese Cultural Garden Association. He served as Chair of Asian American Network of a Fortune 100 company. He has been a successful IT leader. As president of Linguasoft International Ltd, he has dedicated time and resources to provide free online education to kids through www.pointsforkids.com. Jason Lin was a well published researcher in China. He also published a research paper in ACM, a prestigious journal in America while pursuing his Ph. D. However, Jason Lin found more gratification in writing stories and essays instead of research papers.
