What is your most treasured possession?
Gut reaction is my friends, but I don’t possess them. If an object, then an Eastern Zhou dynasty jade baby dragon Rob Ellsworth gave my father. Our last name is 龔, which is a single character that consists of the two characters: ‘dragon’ and ‘unity’ and since it depicted a baby dragon, he gave it to the baby Gong of the family- me!
Best accessory?
A smile
What’s one thing people don’t know about you?
9/10 times I’d rather sleep in a tent in the woods than a silk lined California king.
Best action movie?
I didn’t grow up watching films, so I have no clue. My answer to any best movie question would be Miyazaki films.
Dream watch?
Cartier Dual Time Tank Cintree Asia edition- where they have one dial with roman numerals and the other in Chinese characters.
What is your motto?
Life is good when you are happy, but much better when others are happy, because of you.
Style icon?
My Theory of Knowledge teacher from high school...Madame Johnson!
What do you want to be remembered for?
Never withholding from the love I have to give the world.
