Bio
MengYen Hsieh
I worked with Thao in several courses during the MBA. She is a strategist and practitioner, full of ideas and a hands-on mentality. In business cases in different fields, she is always very energetic and result-oriented to complete each task and obtain good achievements. Thao is an enthusiastic and visionary colleague in the MBA team.

I worked with Thao on several group assignments during the MBA. She's creative, thinks out of the box, and knows the quality of work that she can deliver. Thao's strength lies in inspiration, how she always challenges the status quo and makes anyone who works with her re-think and re-evaluate in order to deliver work that's beyond expectation. Moreover, she's a quick learner and picks things up easily, dedicates time to learn and invest in new skills, and always strives to be understood. It has been a pleasure working with her!
