Meet John

John F. Lee


“Maybe it was a blessing that I was so young because I didn’t know any other way to run a business than to work as hard as possible, day and night, with grit and determination to never give up. The lessons I learned in those early days helped me to have confidence that I could do just about anything I set my mind to, as long as I had good people surrounding me. Therefore, I have always put great importance on finding and cultivating talented, loyal, and hardworking people to take this journey with me.” – John Lee
