ABOUT
Where it begins
I created When East Meets West as a platform to explore and celebrate the cultural richness of both Eastern and Western perspectives. Here, I dive into the differences that define these cultures, but more importantly, the shared values and common ground that unite us.
​
As a first-generation Chinese American from Taiwan, I have personally experienced the blend—and at times, the clash—of Eastern and Western cultures. This unique perspective has enriched my life and shown me the power of understanding and appreciating diverse backgrounds, both in my personal life and in my career.
​
With 25 years as a marketing executive, I’ve had the privilege of working with people worldwide. These experiences taught me that there’s no singular “right” way to do business; rather, success often lies in embracing diverse perspectives and cultivating a collaborative mindset.
​
In addition to my career in business, I am also a certified fitness instructor, teaching since 2013. Fitness, like culture, transcends boundaries—it’s a universal language that brings people together, building connections that go beyond words.
​
When East Meets West is a space for sharing stories, ideas, and experiences that promote cultural appreciation and understanding. It reflects my journey and learnings, combining insights from both my personal and professional life. I hope it serves as a resource for anyone interested in discovering more about the world and the beauty in our shared human experience.
I believe each of us has the power to make a positive impact. By fostering cultural appreciation and unity, we can help build a world where barriers are diminished and understanding thrives.
