Born in Rangoon, Burma in the late 1970s, he moved to the United Kingdom as a child in the early 1980s, where exposure to popular culture sparked a passion for entertainment that led to a career in TV and film. Now residing in Finland in the 2020s, he runs his own creative agency and manages five personal YouTube channels, drawing on extensive experience with client channels.

My name is Tan. I was born in Rangoon, Burma, in the late 1970s. My Burmese name is Ko Tan Mau. I moved to the UK as a child in the early 1980s. Growing up in an era of strong popular culture, I loved everything about the entertainment industry, and because of that, pursued a career in TV and film. Now living in Finland in the 2020s, after starting my own creative agency, I still value the importance of communication and media, but I also love antique books, my family, YouTube, food, water, sunshine, watching basketball, playing music, and making new friends. Like most other adults, in the developed modern world, my day-to-day working life looks a lot like this. But sometimes, luckily, it can look like this. As for YouTube, having worked with countless client YouTube channels and currently running 5 of my own personal channels, I want to demonstrate how it can be a fun and rewarding hobby that anyone can enjoy. Not to mention the fact that it's the best way to start building your digital public record and personal video diary. Moving forward, as I grow older, I hope to get wiser, do more hobbies, and make more friends.
