Leo Y. Liao

  Taipei City, Taiwan

Equipped with multi-work experiences in different domains of business, such as big 4, an investing company, and a tax firm. I've combined my experience from the business area with my characteristics. Not only did I accumulate detail-oriented working habits but also came along with the outbox thinking and creativity.

I always expect myself to become a person who is able to take more responsibilities and inspire other people.

Challenge taker, team player. Good at presentation and communication, I genuinely hope that I can fully utilize my strength to make a contribution while creating extra value towards it.
