Specialisations and Industries
For close to two decades, I prepared and presented financial statements in various configurations to facilitate the decision-making process of business owners and financial controllers in MNCs and SMEs of diverse industries.
By taking the time and effort to understand the clients’ business activities, challenges and goals, I am able to formulate options that meet the clients’ objectives and statutory requirements.
My ability to compartmentalize issues and approach them systematically gives me an advantage in reviewing business operations to provide clients with beneficial suggestions to automating their processes e.g. implementation on internal controls and standard operating processes; setting up suitable accounting software etc.
My area of expertise is the ability to communicate meaningful analysis of the financial statements relative to the clients’ business operations.
I find inspiration when……
Our clients say “Thank you” or show their appreciation for having their interests at heart and providing viable alternatives for their consideration. This drives my want to create a long term relationship with them. It energizes me whenever i think of what my clients say “In war, make sure you are on Ling’s side!”
I am passionate about ……
Understanding diverse business activities and operations. It is satisfying and fulfilling to make steps to understand the clients’ core businesses and goals. Being seen as partners with them and being able to alongside them to strategize is an important part of how i provide value-add to the process. Being an integral part of the decision-making process and helping them navigate and weigh out options keep me going even if the going gets tough.

Spending time with my family members and cooking a feast for them. Baking has been a huge part of our family time together and it relaxes me when i try to achieve that perfect balance between science and art.
