Jennifer is also the co-founder of ARCH Education, an expert education institute based in Hong Kong. ARCH’s mission is to bridge the education gap through delivering transformational programs and providing expert education and admissions counselling to equip students for their future goals. In 2011, Jennifer co-founded ARCH Community Outreach (ACO), a non-profit organization dedicated to widen Hong Kong students’ exposure and access to international education opportunities, with a particular outreach focus on supporting and sponsoring under-resourced high achievers in Hong Kong on their application to global top universities.
