Max Wong, CFA, CAIA

I became acquainted with Alex ten years ago through the trainee programs of PCCW. With his diligence, high-caliber and sense of responsibility, Alex simply stood out even in a highly select group of trainee engineers. Since then, I have witnessed his well-deserved accelerated career path – from a capable engineer, to an all-rounded project manager, to a professional consultant overseeing and delivering multi-million dollar projects to prestige clients. And, more importantly, he is not a nerd! His high sense of humor, caring for friends and family, and infectious enthusiasm for life – from soccer, to movies, to travel, to Chinese history, etc. – make him a wonderful companion as a friend and/or colleague. I have no reservation in recommending Alex to anyone!

Michelle Wu

Alex is an outstanding manager who sets high standards and meets them. He is willing to take up challenging issues and has high problem solving skills to resolve issues. I highly recommend him.
