Born in China and raised in New York City, Yu Lew has been all around the US and making friends from around the world. He studied computers and is a skilled computer technician and programmer. Yu learned Basic programming in first grade on his own from a textbook.

He loves attention, which is why he got into Temple University's "Full Circle Theatre", a community improv group that stresses community awareness (drugs etc). Since then he has loved being in the spotlight, enjoying life one character at a time.

Yu now lives in Brooklyn NY. He continues to study acting with teachers constantly, improving his skills through improv, cold readings, scene study and laughter.
