Since volunteering and officiating at the sailing events of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, I fell in love with sailing. That same year, I founded DEEPBLUE MARINE yacht company, which represents and sells many brands of imported sailboats, provides yacht management services, and offers sailing training courses. I have also conducted training courses certified by the National Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security's Re-employment Guidance Center (for yacht brokers), and I have been operating the online self-media WeChat public account (SailingChina) for over ten yearsIn April 2025, I was authorized to lead NauticEd's expansion across the Asia-Pacific region. Operations will be based in Qingdao, China, where we will oversee the development of hands-on, on-the-water practical training schools throughout the region, as well as manage student registration.
