Hello Everyone,

This is Bella Peng. I have been working in Retail for ~4 years helping Chinese E-commerce brands such as SHEIN, Cupshe (Web & App hybrid) and Jollychic (App) accelerate their global markets growth and new brands/categories launching.Personally I’m such a retail industry lover that being the core member of fashion project, starting the fashion trend deep dive and beauty category studies projects and working with so many talented teams really excite me. Prior to Google, I worked as Senior Sales Manager at P&G to manage skin care retail business growth and top banner clients/distributors’ JBP strategies. After that, I obtained my MBA at University of Notre Dame, United States.

In life, I’m passionate about outdoor activities and got my Spartan Trifecta in 2019. Also being a pet lover, I have 2 cats and 7 hedgehogs (刺猬, my cats’ pets) at home. Please come to chat with me if you fancy any of these activities or pets.:) Look forward to meeting everyone and working with you!

Looking forward to the mentorship kickoff! Please feel free to reschedule if the timing doesn’t suit (:

Please feel free to move it around according to your convenience. Can’t wait for our first meeting!
