Director

I am a dynamic entrepreneur and finance professional with a proven track record of excellence in both corporate finance and the luxury watch trading industry. With a background in finance management and risk advisory, I have successfully navigated high-pressure environments, consistently meeting tight deadlines and achieving key performance indicators.

In 2022, I have founded Abbie Watch Trading Sdn Bhd, a luxury watch trading business that has thrived under her leadership. I have built a loyal client base by providing personalized services, acquiring rare and limited-edition timepieces, and expanding my business through social media marketing. I have a keen eye for market trends and adept negotiation skills helped increase inventory turnover by 20% and grow profits by 30%, even amid fluctuations in market prices.

Before embarking on my entrepreneurial journey, I have held the role of Finance Manager at Cipher Technology Sdn Bhd, where I played a pivotal role in managing financial reporting, budgeting, and financial analysis. During my leadership, I helped reduce operational costs by 15% and implement a new accounting system that significantly streamlined financial processes. I also provided valuable insights into pricing strategies that maximized the company's revenue.

My early career includes a consultancy role at Deloitte Risk Advisory Sdn Bhd, where I specialized in internal audit, risk assessment, and project management for financial institutions. I also gained experience at Crowe Horwath Governance Sdn Bhd and NMC Marketing Sdn Bhd, where I gained my skills in financial audits, compliance, and operational analysis.

I am a graduate of BPP Professional Education in London, where she completed the rigorous Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) program. I also hold a Western Australian Certification of Education (WACE) from Sunway College.

Fluent in English, Mandarin, and Malay, I am recognized for my adaptability in a fast-changing business environment and my ability to lead teams and manage projects effectively. My passion for entrepreneurship, combined with my solid foundation in finance, makes me a versatile professional with a unique blend of skills.
