Christina Hsiang was born in Taiwan, but moved to Toronto when she was 7 years old. Christina and her family moved back to Taiwan a half-decade later, where she attended high school and started applying for university in the United States.

Our discussion led us to some of the following topics:
1) Asia is expanding, rapidly. Most people in the West can not conceptualize the speed and acceleration of this expansion.

3) Companies started, developed and domiciled in Asia will expand regionally and globally, increasing their footprints, relevance and dominance.
