From the aisles of a hypermarket in Paris, learning the ropes of the retail industry to the pioneering retail experiences in Asia, I had the chance to learn and share experiences in 5 different Asian countries, with many different cultures and talented people whom I can call my friends today, like Alex back in 1993 in Kuala Lumpur. I took the chance to jump into some very exiting leadership roles, sometimes with great success and sometimes less, but always feeling grateful and enriched by the challenges and opportunities to learn.I have applied those learnings in strategy and operations with a focus on unlocking and maximizing efficiencies to improve financial performance, to my best ability and integrity.The journey continues, with 2 great partners, building our own business, applying with humility what we have learned over the years.
