For Jukay Hsu, E-Mails, Work and Evening Runs on Sundays Jukay Hsu, 28, founded Coalition for Queens, a nonprofit group promoting development and the tech industry in the borough where he grew up, in May 2011. Since Hurricane Sandy, the coalition, based in Long Island City, has worked with local officials to gather storm relief information and resources and connect volunteers with victims of the storm, as well as opening a free temporary office in Long Island City for small businesses and technology entrepreneurs. Mr. Hsu himself has volunteered at the Queens College shelter. He graduated from Stuyvesant High School, where he was student body president his senior year, and went on to Harvard before joining the Army. After a four-year stint, including a tour of duty in Iraq, where he earned a Bronze Star, he returned to Queens. On Sundays he rarely leaves the borough, making a loop from Flushing, where he lives with his mother, Hui-Ling Hsu, 59, a social worker, to his office in Long Island City, and back. WAKE UP, LOG ON I sleep in, get up around 10 o'clock. I generally try not to check my e-mail right away - well, I do. I guess I do. CULINARY OUTING I try to have either brunch or dim sum in Flushing or other neighborhoods around Queens. I try to sell everyone on Queens - most of my friends don't live in Queens, but there's great food. There's a great place - Biang! - that opened in Flushing. It's really relaxed. The food's amazing. I really like White Bear for dumplings, and there are lots of great dim sum places, like Asian Jewels Seafood Restaurant. EXPLORATION What's really different about living here in New York as an adult versus in high school is I feel like I'm discovering a lot of neighborhoods I didn't know when I was in high school. One thing I really miss living in New York - I haven't had as much opportunity to travel. What's great about living in Queens is if you make an effort to explore different neighborhoods, it's kind of like rediscovering New York. That's what I enjoy when I travel, is meeting locals and seeing life through their perspective and understanding that, and so a little part of that for me takes place on Sundays, through food. BACK TO WORK I come in to work around 1 or 2. During the week, I have a lot of meetings, and Sunday's a good time to think about and plan the week ahead. Also, everyone volunteers, we can't do anything without that, and a lot of people work full time, so a lot of times we have meetings on Sundays to get people to help out with various projects, like our Web site, logo, other graphic design work, programming. A lot of people aren't from Queens, actually, but they're interested in the idea of growing this area and supporting the New York tech industry. NIGHT RUNNER I work until 10 or 11, and generally I go back to Flushing. When I get home, sometimes I go for a run at the end of the night, and it's great - the air's really crisp, it's really beautiful running around, and it's really peaceful. I really like running in cities. I think it's a great way to explore a place. SCI-FI OR FAULKNER I usually don't go to bed until 2 o'clock or something. I might catch up on some e-mails, and it's also a great time to work because you're not distracted by e-mails and you really have time to think. I try to read a whole smattering of things. I really like sci-fi, Faulkner - I guess I read things that aren't really exactly related to my work.
