Sherene Chen, Mba is a professional in their field. Colleagues describe them as "I worked with Sherene on the Acquisition of Bloom Marin by the YWCA Golden Gate Silicon Valley. We formally began Merger talks in 2020. Sherene had the difficult task of navigating the board’s wishes and also nurturing the founder’s feelings and concerns while deciding if the acquisition was in Bloom’s best interest. Sherene led the M&A committee for her board and was involved in all the technical details of the acquisition. She delicately led the staff, board, and founder through the process. There were also over 100 very dedicated and invested volunteers at Bloom that needed to be informed compassionately. Sherene successfully and competently managed the legal details, audit, and financial pieces of the acquisition. She worked on all matter day to day and remained dedicated until the last final details were executed. She did a wonderful job of liaising between the YWCA and Bloom supporters as well as announcing the acquisition to the public and key stakeholders. She worked closely with her YWCA partner to obtain much needed grant funding from Marin Community Foundation." and "I collaborated with Sherene at Agilent Technologies in the Finance Management rotation program. We were both recruited after completing our MBA degrees. Throughout the program, we participated in comprehensive training sessions aimed at developing outstanding financial professionals for the company's leadership pipeline. Sherene excelled in her field sales finances and internal audit rotations. She commanded respect in the office due to her dedication and strong work ethic. Sherene was not only a pleasure to work with but also a source of motivation for her team members. Her attention to detail was impressive. Additionally, she earned her Six Sigma green belt and successfully executed numerous Six Sigma projects for the organization. I highly recommend Sherene for financial advisory and management roles."
