About Me
Adrian Tan
Hello! Thank you for visiting my personal website and for wanting to learn a little bit about me. I live in beautiful Los Angeles California. However I was originally born and raised in the Philippines. I moved out here when I was 14 years old and I am grateful for the opportunities here in the USA.
My friends call me Adrian or simply by my last name Tan. I am the eldest of four siblings. My brothers Andrew and Andre and my sister Gennina all live in California and we love spending time with our parents Alex and Genny.
I enjoy many things, but at the top of my list: I really enjoy playing golf and relaxing on the beach or going to a nice spa and getting a treatment. I also love food and traveling. For my last vacation, I recently went and took my family to Cancun and enjoyed a week vacation with my parents on their anniversary. We rented speed boats, went and saw the Mayan ruins, had fine dining and got a tan.
Goals and ambitions are motivating and important in a person’s life. Napoleon Hill once said that “What the mind of a man can conceive and believe, it can achieve” I have a goal to start a school that not only have basic academics but also inter-twine self development and success principles as a curriculum.
I’ve been fortunate to accomplish many things in my life. But my biggest accomplishment: I was grateful to have been voted by my community as the President of the Filipino American Association (non-profit) serving the needy and keeping the Filipino culture alive and strong.
I’m having the time of my life right now by living my dream of owning my own business. Having my own business has given me freedom to have personal satisfaction based on my results and through helping others. I am on the wheel and can steer it at whatever direction; especially up. I hope that gives you some insight into who I am.
