Bio
Rob Colvin
I've had the pleasure of working with Kien for over 12 years as both a team member and as a service provider. In my experience with Kien, I have noted that he is knowledgeable, efficient, and very client focused. He quickly identifies issues, root causes, and potential solutions with a minimum amount of guidance. He does what it takes to get things done on time and on budget. Kien works well in a variety of settings and is able to become a key contributor in a very short period of time. I regularly use him as an example of a excellent team member or service provider that others should emulate. Kien is always one of the first resources I contact when I have an opportunity. I would enthusiastically recommend Kien to anyone.

I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Kien Taing for over 10 years, when we were colleagues at PwC. He is personable, bright, talented, and laser-focused on helping his clients grow. But it's more than just numbers to Kien. He truly cares about people and gets to know them so that he understands how best he can be helpful. He's a true entrepreneur, starting his own professional services firm, a year or so ago. He's the real deal and I am utterly confident that you will enjoy working with Kien...and then having a new and wonderful friend.
