Biography

Born in 1974 in Hong Kong into a working-class family and brought up on a public housing estate, Lee obtained her Bachelor of Business Administration from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Master of Business Administration from the University of Manchester. She became a professional accountant, working for the KPMG in Hong Kong and is currently the principal at the CCIF CPA Ltd.

She was elected when she was 26, the youngest district councillor at that time. She joined the pro-Beijing Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong when she was approached by the former party chairman Tsang Yok-sing around 2004. She was asked to become the part of Tsang's team in the following Legislative Council election in September 2004. She was listed third on the candidate list and helped Tsang to win a seat in the Kowloon West.

Around a black hole
Beyond which nothing
Not even light, can escape
Matter falling into the eye of
