About Zoe Lau
As an undergrad, I decided to to study food science and start my own food blog. This decision was influenced by previously dealing with multiple health issues. I wanted to help others by learning about nutrition, food processing and developing my own recipes. Building my recipe blog and interning in a large pharmaceutical company was a life-changing experience, because it exposed me to the challenges of running a business and made me realize that I could make an impact in other ways. This has led me to pursue a degree in the Masters in Accounting at University of Texas Austin so that I can learn the language of business. Through this degree, I hope I can make a greater impact in health companies and companies in other sectors. I truly believe that accounting plays an integral role in the success of a business. I have seen this firsthand as I conducted financial and industry analysis on companies in Europe and working for a small private equity company in Hong Kong helping them run day-day to business transactions and prepare for SPAC IPOs. I am persistent and a fast learner. I always welcome new opportunities to learn and I will work hard to do better. I am especially passionate about working with others, because I believe it is the best way to learn and help one another.
