right target audience and communicate that to clients well. Wey Tyng is a shining star and has
built a solid reputation for herself as a stellar performer, doing consistently well in her areas of
work. I am very pleased to activate this well-deserved promotion and have no doubt that she
will continue to shine in her role.”
