Joyce is a strong believer of mentorship and “life impacts life” (生命影響生命). Her passion for education was apparent from a young age. She took a gap year between high school and university to teach English at a local Beijing school, an experience which solidified her passion for pursuing a lifelong career in education. She has also volunteered as a mentor at the Breakthrough Organisation, the After School Organisation, Maryknoll Convent School as well as the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups.
Joyce graduated with a BA (Hons) in Economics from the University of Cambridge. She received a full scholarship to support her studies. As part of Joyce’s Cambridge education she also spent one year at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) as an exchange student. Before Cambridge, she attended the Li Po Chun United World College of Hong Kong and the Maryknoll Convent School.
After graduating Joyce began her career as an analyst at McKinsey and Company, a management consulting firm that advises the senior management of leading companies. After McKinsey she became the co-founder and director of CANA, an education institution that focuses on international education. This year she founded a non-profit branch of CANA in order to provide support for less privileged students in Hong Kong. In addition to her duties at CANA Joyce is also the education column writer for the AM730.
