Q&A

Q. What is the toughest decision you have ever made?
Leaving my job in Taiwan to try to make it in the United States. I had a great job with lots of security working for my father, but I wanted to try to make it on my own. It was a hard decision, but ultimately worth it.
Q. Describe your work style.
I like to get to know a client when I first meet them. I want to meet them in person and really get a sense of what they want to accomplish. Making connections is important to me and having great connections with clients is one of the most important keys to success in our profession.
Q. What’s your proudest moment?
Watching my son overcome dyslexia. Watching him work so hard at it to the point where he can read and do math independently and without frustration is a huge proud mom moment. Seeing him be confident and self-assured in his capabilities means the world to me.
Q. Who is (or was) the most influential person in your life
My father. I learned my work style from watching the way he works. He works in the construction industry and makes an effort to bring teams together to collaborate, rather than demanding that things be done his way. He makes sure to always involve all the stakeholders and hear out their thoughts. I think his collaborative work style is what taught me how to work with my colleagues and clients. 
Q. If you could pass on a nugget of wisdom to aspiring accountants or consultants, what would that be?
Be persistent and have patience. Success doesn’t happen overnight, so it’s important to have the patience to wait for results to grow over time. The more experience you accumulate, the better your results.
