Among my strengths are Honesty, Integrity, Professionalism, and Patience. My Clients come first!

I was born in Vietnam and arrived in Toronto at the age of eight in 1979. I am fluent in English and Cantonese, and have an understanding of the Vietnamese language.

I attended public and high schools in the East York and Riverdale areas during the 1980's.  

In 1995, I received the Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Computer Engineering and Management Science from the University of Waterloo.  Two years later,  I became licensed as a Professional Engineer, while working as a consultant at a software professional services firm.  I progressed through various managerial roles leading to the role of Vice President of Product Development for a spin-off product in 1999.

In 2001, I got my real estate license. After five years of practice in real estate, I fulfilled a personal goal of starting my own brokerage, City Wide Professionals Inc.

I have a keen interest in the practical use of technology to solve problems and enhance the way we live and work.

During my free time, I enjoy spending time with son, Justin and wife, Khiem.  

And when I get really bored, I dabble in poetry and other thoughts.  If you are really bored you could read some of my (and Justin's) work at this link:  http://poetry.johntran.com.  And, here's a blog I write on sometimes (feel free to browse and leave me a comment!): http://jetism.blogspot.com

Now, I hope to get to know you! Please don't hesitate to give me a call.
