About

Over nearly two decades in payments and commerce, I have operated at the intersection of commercial B2B payments, card issuing and acquiring, merchant SaaS, stored value infrastructure, and loyalty platforms. My focus has consistently been on transforming payment capabilities into sustainable, multi-market growth engines.

Across leadership roles at American Express, HSBC, and Pine Labs, I have led regional P&L ownership, enterprise partnership expansion, and cross-market growth across Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Hong Kong, and India.

Beyond work

Taiwan has a special place in my life, and I continue to study Traditional Chinese to deepen cultural connection. I also explore AI tools that improve productivity and help structure commercial decision-making.

Outside payments, I enjoy vintage cars, camping, piano, guitar, and the occasional karaoke session β€” because learning should stay fun.
