 With over 40 years of experience as an insurance broker and a deep-rooted connection to the Los Angeles area, Mr. Richard Hing has dedicated his career to service the local community.  Raised in Los Angeles, I attended local public schools, Ivanhoe Elementary, King Junior High, Marshal High School and California State University Los Angeles.  All have grounded him in the value and culture of our vibrant city.  As a former board member of the LA Chinese Chamber and managing partner of Summit Western and Mandarin Plaza, Mr. Hing has played integral roles in Los Angeles Chinatown’s business and community leadership.

Throughout his career, Richard has served on the board of directors for organizations such as ISU Insurance Services leveraging my expertise to drive strategic initiatives and to foster growth.  He also has worked directly with Insurance Commissioner John Garemendi on the Special Committee to assist claims dealing with the Los Angeles Riots.

Now Mr. Hing is driven by a desire to reignite the core values within the Chinese American community to bring families and businesses together to support one another and preserve our community cultural heritage. 

Mr. Hing’s goal is to channel his energy back into the community fostering connections and creating opportunities for collaboration and mutual support between the Chamber and Chinese American businesses in the greater Los Angeles area.
