Darrell Lee
Managing director
I have spent two decades inside finance functions in Asia-Pacific — audit at Andersen/PwC, industrial and licensing controls at Bosch and One-Red, and regional CFO at Candela Medical.
The through-line is not a title. It is making a cross-border business produce a number a board can trust, then using that number to change how the company sells, spends, and is structured.
Gwan Strategic is the vehicle for that work in fractional and project form. I still do the work myself.

How I work
Fewer slides. Clearer scope. Hands on the P&L, the close, and the system until the operating rhythm holds.
Full-time roles
Occasionally open to a full-time VP Finance or CFO mandate in APAC, and only when the company, the mandate, and the people are a genuine fit.
What is being built
I am exploring a small multi-family office for industrial and founder families in Asia. It is not an offering and it has no service list. If that is ever relevant, it will be obvious from a conversation.
