Growing up in Alhambra, California, Chi-Lan Lieu began her love affair with television and technology the day her father made them the first on the block to have a home karaoke machine. Being an early adopter inspired Chi-Lan to begin her career in television as a producer then tech reporter at TechTV from 2001-2004. Taking the intimidation out of tech had Chi-Lan host shows that included “I Want That! Tech Toys”, “The Screen Savers”, “Fresh Gear” and Spike.com’s CES Special. But tech was just the gateway for this host's love affair with television work...
Chi-Lan currently hosts a new HGTV series, “LIVING ABROAD” where she chronicles the experiences, culture shocks, and life lessons of American families living in foreign countries. When not discovering new cultures and foods, Chi-Lan prides herself on being the motion gaming expert and all around ruckus rouser. She also produces, writes and hosts entertainment stories for K-ABC's ON THE RED CARPET, and webisodes/reviews and blogs for GameTrailers.com. Her other television credits include CW NOW (The CW), EXTRA (NBC), FACT OR FAKED: PARANORMAL FILES (SyFy), THE ROSE PARADE (HGTV), DESIGNED TO SELL (HGTV), THE BIG TEASE (Reelz Channel), MTV OVERDRIVE, YAHOO! GAMES and HOLLYWOOD 411 (TV Guide). In her spare time, Chi-Lan enjoys photography and hiking with her dogs.
