Greater Vancouver · Around the table
Greater Vancouver
Polish, then bloom.
How we care for a life — body, mind, money, and the small habits that hold them — over good food, honest talk, writing, and work that stays close to real days.
Body, mind, money, and habits — tended around the table, in notes, and in real work.

Founder
I care about ordinary things done with care: what we eat, how we rest, how we spend, and what we try to protect for the people we love. I spent years in financial services, with an LLM in international trade and tax law, and I built Polish & Bloom so those questions could live in one place — between Asia and Canada, and here in Greater Vancouver.
In practice
A table. A few good people. Words worth keeping.

PB Club
A small invite-only table in Greater Vancouver — good food, something good to drink, and conversation that doesn’t rush. Ten to fourteen people. No pitch. A simple contribution covers the meal. We gather a few times a year; I’ll share the date when the table is ready. Sometimes, when I’m traveling and the people are right, the table comes with me.

Collaborations & projects
I work with people bridging Asia and Canada on wellness, health tech, and money-in-real-life — introductions, honest market conversations, and small projects with clear edges. Less hype. More what actually helps.

Notes & tea
I write about how we live, recover, spend, and learn — and how ideas move between Asia and Canada. Tea, through One Origin Estate, is part of that: hospitality, tradition, and a modern cup. Sometimes the notes go longer, into family and capital.
Notes
Notes from ordinary days — not from a theory of living.
