Mr. Ee was born in Singapore in August of 1972, subsequently moved to Hong Kong, and then to Hawaii.

In Michigan, the Lord changed his life drastically through community service in Detroit, where his perspectives of success changed from worldly excess to impacting the lives of others for the better. From Michigan, he attended the United States Air Force Academy, graduating with a degree in civil engineering because it could directly impact people in a tangible way. In February of 1997, the Lord allowed him to meet Jennifer, whom he would marry thirteen months later. Just over two months into their marriage, he had his first deployment to Oman. In North Dakota, thirteen months after their marriage they welcomed their firstborn, Japhia, a sweet little girl. The following year, he was deployed to Saudi Arabia. Moving to Texas, the Lord gave them Micah, an energetic and gifted boy, in 2000. While stationed at the Pentagon, they had their third child, Joy, a dear little girl. After two more deployments supporting United States Central Command and Operation Iraqi Freedom, the Lord led him to settle down to get more family time. The Air National Guard afforded such an opportunity, and upon his return from Iraq, he settled down in Pittsburgh.
