anthony + pearl

Pearl has been a city girl all her life.  She was born in Hong Kong to Francis and Wendy Hung.  At age eight - just a few years before the return of Hong Kong to communist China, they immigrated to New York City where most of her relatives lived.

So it's no surprise that she moved to Los Angeles to pursue a degree and career in architecture.  She is currently the job captain at one of the biggest architecture firms in the world, HOK.

While at USC, Pearl met Anthony through Alpha Rho Chi, a co-ed architecture fraternity.  In her third year in school, Anthony got Pearl hooked on skiing after taking her to his company annual ski trip at Mammoth Mountain.  It was later at the peak of Mammoth that Anthony proposed to Pearl. The very next day, Pearl fell while taking a turn too fast and had to be carted down by ski patrol. The running joke is that Anthony was gunning for her life insurance.  (Anthony begs to differ and claims the extra weight of the rock threw her off balance.)

In her free time other than skiing, Pearl enjoys cooking and inventing new recipes, watching tv - mostly anime, and playing with anything that is soft and fluffy whether it be a puppy, teddy bear, or fabric sample.
