From precision manufacturing in Taiwan to international sourcing and Amazon product validation — two decades of hands-on procurement, supplier negotiation, customs, and inventory decision-making, applied to every role since.
My background spans 20 years of hands-on supply chain experience — across manufacturing, procurement, and sourcing — before I began specializing in Amazon product validation.
Most recently, I built and scaled MV Gold Jewelries from 2020 to 2025. Running my own business meant that every sourcing decision, competitor price comparison, and inventory purchase directly impacted my own livelihood.
I learned firsthand how to balance demand with profit potential, apply pricing strategies to protect margins, and minimize the risks of overstocking.
That ownership mentality wasn't new to Amazon — it's the same approach I've carried across three different industries over 20 years, detailed below.
I bring that exact ownership mentality to this project. When I validate a product, I scrutinize it with the same rigorous risk assessment and ROI focus as if I were investing my own capital.
