Daniel Tsai is a lawyer, business executive, educator and columnist, who also happens to remotely operate a successful convenience store and gas station in B.C.  While he grew up in the business that his parents had operated and owned for more than 40 years, Tsai never planned to take over the family business.  He calls it a typical immigrant story – his parents sacrificed and worked long, hard hours so their children could have better lives, while he pursued several law degrees, a PhD, and, later, an Ivy League MBA.  When the business was struggling due to the “Costco effect,” and the tenant gave notice to abandon the site, Tsai took over, using his business know-how, technology, and marketing expertise to propel unprecedented growth. In just five years, he’s turned the struggling c-gas operation into a community destination with lineups at the pumps.
