Fun Facts:
Zhihong has gained over 40 pounds since he came off the boat. As you might guess, the “culprit” behind all of this is the MAGICAL southern foods. Outside the lab, Zhihong likes cooking, reading, and photographing. Zhihong held a Master’s Degree in Modern Family from ABC. He is a big fan of Seish Yokomizo, Dan Brown, Orion, and the Hamilton musical.
