Student Story

When I finished my schooling in Macau, I moved to Vancouver, Canada with my family and got my bachelor degree at Simon Fraser University.  In pursuit of a new challenge, I moved back to Macau where this tiny but highly energetic city’s economy had just started its remarkable boom and offered lots of opportunities.

I began my career in a Big 4 accounting firm, and I am currently working as the chief audit executive in one of the note issuing banks in Macau.  Even though I have already earned technical qualifications like CPA, FRM and other professional certificates, I felt a lack of management skills and so I looked for an MBA.

The HKU MBA programme was an obvious choice for me as it is one of the top ranked in Asia and world-wide, as well as having a programme flexibility that allows me to achieve a balance of study, work and family life.  I am very glad I have made the right choice, not only because I have learned a lot from the respected professors, but because I have also met many new friends from different backgrounds and different countries which resembles the multiculturalism that Canadians are always proud of and appreciate.
