Oakville, Ontario, Canada
I specialize in cross-border due diligence, corporate governance analysis, and China-focused risk intelligence—helping businesses evaluate legitimacy, transparency, and hidden structural risk in complex environments. Over the past 20+ years, I have worked across corporate law, foreign direct investment (FDI), compliance, and cross-border transactions, conducting practical investigations into investor legitimacy, shareholder structures, beneficial ownership, governance vulnerabilities, financial integrity, and corruption exposure. My career has focused on designing governance structures, operational controls, and stakeholder accountability frameworks that reduce risk before failure occurs. My experience includes: • FDI investor due diligence and integrity screening • Corporate governance reviews across complex joint ventures • Shareholder and beneficial ownership tracing • Regulatory and compliance risk analysis • Cross-border structuring and operational risk assessment Rather than focusing solely on legal form, my work has consistently centered on identifying real-world structural risk—analyzing how ownership, governance, political exposure, and compliance vulnerabilities affect business decisions. With an LL.M. in Finance, an MBA in Canada, and deep familiarity with Chinese corporate and regulatory ecosystems, I bring a combination of legal depth, investigative rigor, commercial awareness, and bilingual English/Mandarin capability. I am particularly interested in roles involving due diligence, third-party risk, compliance intelligence, corporate investigations, and cross-border governance where complex information must be transformed into actionable insight.
