Darrell Lee CPA, MSc
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. Commerically sharp, bilingual.
The through-line is not a title. It is making a cross-border business produce a number a board and ELT 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 with you and your team.

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.
