A few years after leaving the elite US Army Special Forces, Gene Yu found himself leading a team to secure the release of a Taiwanese woman who had been kidnapped by militants in the Philippines. It was just one of many extraordinary moments in Gene's journey — from his youth as an Asian American in search of his identity, becoming an accomplished officer in the Green Berets, and then moving into the finance and technology sectors. In 2015, Gene founded Blackpanda, which is now a cyber emergency response firm headquartered in Singapore. Gene shares his remarkable journey and what he'd say in his letter to his younger self.
