Dorothy was born and raised in Saskatchewan. The daughter of immigrants from Hong Kong, she was the first in her family to go to university. She holds a business degree and a law degree and practiced class action litigation in Toronto for almost 20 years.
Later, God called her into church ministry where she provided executive leadership in a large intercultural church in northeast Toronto. She has served on various boards in the past. Through these experiences, God has shaped her heart posture as she listened to the stories of the "foreigner" – reimagining the way of belonging where walls of separation are broken down through Christ (Ephesians 2).
Today, Dorothy if the Director of the Tyndale Intercultural Ministries (TIM) Centre. She is a skilled facilitator and speaker. She is deeply passionate about helping faith leaders attune to the missiological opportunity that is arising in a multicultural Canada.
Dorothy is married and has two adult children. She and her husband enjoy exploring the multiethnic tastes and sounds of Toronto.
