Our Team

Sam moved to China in 2006 after finishing his degree in International Trade and Finance at the Victorian University of Technology in Australia. He founded Sphere Resources with Christina in 2009.

Today, Sam stays close to the larger and more complex client accounts where strategy, long-term planning, and problem-solving matter most. The rest of his time goes into building the company's operational capabilities, including the systems, technology, training, and supplier relationships that affect the quality of your projects over time.

He's more of an advisor than a salesperson. If your project has a smarter way to come together, you'll hear about it from him directly, even if it means a smaller order.

Christina is from Heyuan, Guangdong, about two hours from our Dongguan office. She studied International Trade at Changsha Foreign Language University and speaks four languages, which makes a real difference when coordinating between western clients and Chinese factories.

Christina runs the day-to-day operations of the China team. She's built most of the supplier relationships the business depends on, and a large part of our operational knowledge runs through her or someone she trained.
