Sherry was born and raised in Taiwan. She moved to Australia with her family after 7th grade, and later traveled to New York city of United States for her bachelor’s degree. After college graduation, she continued to live and work in United States until the expiration of her work visa. She now resides in Taiwan with her family. Growing up in different countries has shaped her world view and motivated her to gain deeper understandings of different cultures and to promote intercultural competency. As part of her lifelong learning, she went back to school for an Executive master’s program in Change leadership in her mid-forties. The learning of the program inspired her to pivot once more in her career to become an executive coach for women leaders and to provide diversity and inclusion training and workshops.

In 2003, she returned to her home country and founded Byte-In Integrated Marketing to promote talents and products specifically in the hospitality industry. The main services include Marketing & Event Planning, Employer Brand Building, and Recruitment. The experience of recruiting talents led her to explore the idea of training and education. In 2015, she joined Kai Ping Culinary School to build the International Bridge Program. The program gained recognition from the local government and schools in Europe and United States. In 2018, Sherry was invited to be a regular guest writer for the Jenaplan Education Association in Holland.
