Pastor Yi was born in Taiwan. He started his quest in Christianity in college and finally became a believer in 1990 when he came to the US for graduate school. After pursuing double master’s degrees in Physics and Electrical Engineering, Pastor Yi returned to Taiwan and became a semiconductor thin film process engineer. Meanwhile, he was actively involved in the young career fellowship of the church. With an unexpected yet miraculous deed from God, he received a job offer from a tech company in Bay Area in 2001, so his whole family moved back to the US.
