He is the son of Eduardo Lee Vásquez, of Sino-Chilean origin, and Oriela Flores Cuellar. He is a General Physician from the University of Concepción, with a master's degree in medical sciences with a mention in Surgery from the University of La Frontera. In 1997 he received a scholarship from the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo to pursue a formal specialization in Plastic Surgery. Since 1994 he worked in the Emergency and Surgery Service of the Dr. Juan Noé Hospital in Arica, until 2004 when he resigned to practice his profession privately. He is currently Director of Artemed, a specialty Medical Center, dedicated to Regenerative Medicine and Cellular Therapy. He is also dedicated to academic work at the University of Tarapacá and the Chilean Security Association. His political career began in 2013, when he was an independent candidate for deputy for district 1 in the parliamentary elections of that year, an occasion where he obtained about 6% of the votes without being elected. His career continued in 2017, when he was a candidate for senator for the Arica and Parinacota Region in the 2017 parliamentary elections, where he obtained the first majority but was not elected because he was an independent candidate, and due to the new proportional electoral system established in Chile for the first time, the D'Hondt System. In 2021 he announced his candidacy for the governorship of the Arica and Parinacota Region, in the 2021 regional governor elections, where he was not elected.
