Growing up in an entrepreneurial household, she started her career at Bain & Company in Hong Kong before moving to Silicon Valley and working with leading luxury brands like Apple, Nike and Tory Burch, before striking out on her own.

“I grew up in a very entrepreneurial household, so it was always my dream to start a company like Senreve someday,” says Chung. “It’s very fulfilling to create beautiful products that hundreds of thousands of women love around the world.”

At the moment, she is focusing on expanding the business into the Asia-Pacific region and China.

“One of my focus areas is expanding Senreve in the APAC region. I think there continues to be tremendous growth and potential for the brand. We are doing a lot online, we have different creative partnerships and new product launches. We also have two stores in Hong Kong at Harbour City and IFC, and one store in Singapore as well as pop-ups in Shanghai, Beijing, and Chengdu,” she says, adding that she is also focused on sustainability initiatives within her business, which includes introducing products that are luxurious but also 100 per cent vegan.

With a growing business and two children, Chung integrates work and family life rather than forcing a balance of the two. “I have embraced integrating work and life rather than trying to force a balance. I love what I do and am passionate about my work, so sometimes it’s a very intense schedule including taking a conference call at midnight before giving birth the next day! I usually try to do something outdoors on the weekends, like hiking in the mountains, which helps me disconnect and do a digital detox,” says Chung.

She admits that it is hard to find time for herself. “It’s very hard to have time to myself every day since I have a newborn baby. I do love taking a bubble bath from time to time and baking cookies or other desserts. I recently got a juice machine and have been enjoying the ritual of making a fresh juice cocktail every morning,” she says.

Chung says her daughters inspire her. “My daughters are inspirational to me. I’m constantly learning from them, and they’re always testing my patience and perseverance,” she says. “For example, my eight-year-old daughter recently told me to let go of my perfectionist ways – instead of saying ‘practice makes perfect’, it should be ‘practice makes progress’. It’s also important for me to continue being a role model for them and hopefully paving the way for more women founders, entrepreneurs and CEOs in the future generations.”

Having time for her children is also a priority. “A wise friend once asked me, ‘How do kids spell love? T-I-M-E’ is the answer.”

“My parents gave me a pair of AP watches for me and my husband as our wedding gift. It’s my favourite watch because of the sentimental value and how beautiful and intricate the design is. I also think it’s a piece that I can pass on to my daughter, which makes it extra special.”
