Jin Xiao is intellectually curious by nature, seeking to acquire knowledge in a wide range of disparate topics. Jin believes that holistic thinking, one that integrates economic, engineering and business concepts, can help make our world a better place. One field that seems to enable this sort of approach is project management.

For over ten years, Mr Xiao has been honing his abilities to mitigate risk, allocate resources and address customer requirements in a multi-stakeholder environment within the manufacturing industry. Jin is now looking forward to transferring those skills into applied social research.

Jin Xiao holds a Bachelor of Engineering in Fluid Power Transmission & Control from Lanzhou University of Technology (China) and a Master of Business Administration, Project Management stream, from the University of New Brunswick (Canada). Mr Xiao also maintains a PMI certification in good standing with the Project Management Institute.
