Nationality is the United States; attended Washington State University in the United States and later transferred. In 1989 went to Seattle, the United States, to continue secondary school.

Was once a member of the Hong Kong Children's Choir and of primary- and secondary-school choirs, and from childhood took a strong interest in music. At six tried piano and composing on his own, at ten learned guitar. Wikipedia records that third uncle 羅尚正 (Ted Lo) is a well-known Hong Kong arranger, producer and jazz pianist. In 1981, composer 顧嘉煇 once asked Justin Lo and younger sister 羅定潔 to sing for a Barbie commercial.

After graduation worked as a web designer at Yahoo in Santa Clara, California.
