Senior Partner & Chief Executive Officer

Myles Lewis Alexander is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Far Point Global, where he converts macro‑level turbulence—tariffs, freight chokepoints, and shifting specifications—into on‑the‑ground certainty for builders and manufacturers. Under his leadership, Far Point Global has become a nimble market maker, securing production access, cost leverage, and schedule integrity for projects on five continents.

Myles launched his finance career at Zeus Capital Advisors, crafting de novo banking strategies and Islamic financial products. After Zeus’s acquisition by Northern Trust, he joined TradeMonster, where negotiating complex technology‑services contracts honed his instinct for scalable deal architecture.

In search of a personal crucible, he stepped away for five years to compete as a professional triathlete—setting an amateur world record, earning three All‑American honors, representing Team USA at the Pan‑American Cup, and winning the NYC Elite Triathlon. The discipline, data rigor, and risk‑management instincts forged in sport now underpin his executive decision‑making.

Returning to finance, Myles directed field oversight for innovative lease‑back projects at The Walsh Group, managing multi‑state construction portfolios worth hundreds of millions of dollars. He then joined a family office, spearheading a strategic overhaul that expanded business lines into the U.S. market and drove a 5× revenue increase with only a 10 percent rise in staff; his final quarter posted 70 percent quarter‑over‑quarter growth—the firm’s highest‑ever Q4 gross.

Recognizing a market gap, he founded Far Point Global to help developers, contractors, and capital partners navigate international sourcing. Leveraging deep relationships in global manufacturing, he designs bespoke procurement solutions that mitigate tariff volatility, freight‑lane disruptions, and production‑slot scarcity while unlocking meaningful cost savings.

Educated at Sarah Lawrence College, London School of Economics, and The University of Chicago, Myles concentrated on economics and financial markets—academic training that grounds his practical approach to supply‑chain strategy.

Partner, Chief Operating Officer, & Head of Supply Chain

Kee Hwang is a Partner and Chief Operating Officer of Far Point Global, where he converts Asia’s vast manufacturing landscape into a disciplined, just‑in‑time supply chain for the firm’s clients. From first bid to final delivery, Kee orchestrates a cross‑border network of factories, freight corridors, and last‑mile partners that unlock cost leverage and schedule certainty for projects on both sides of the Pacific.

Over a two‑decade career in international trade—including executive posts at Fortune 500 manufacturers—Kee has built and fortified supply‑chain architectures spanning North America and Asia. He has guided scores of companies through the complexities of market entry, supplier vetting, and operational scale‑up, repeatedly turning fractured vendor lists into resilient, data‑driven ecosystems.

At Far Point Global, Kee spearheads procurement and production programs across Asia, negotiating factory capacity, enforcing quality protocols, and coordinating ocean, rail, and air logistics. His early‑stage collaboration during competitive bid cycles sharpens clients’ cost profiles and de‑risks project timelines—often the decisive edge in winning (and delivering) multimillion‑dollar contracts.

Kee earned his degrees at leading Chinese universities, including Peking University, with concentrations in international relations and finance—an academic foundation that informs his fluency in both macro‑economic strategy and factory‑floor execution.

Managing Director & Head of Strategy

Julia Zhu is Managing Director & Head of Strategy at Far Point Global, where she transforms raw market complexity into clear, actionable roadmaps for the firm and its clients. From early scoping to deal close, Julia interrogates every buy‑ and sell‑side move—stress‑testing exposures, surfacing hidden upside, and aligning cross‑border transactions with long‑term strategic aims.

Julia’s career spans engineering consultancies, non‑profits, and high‑level public‑sector roles—including shaping policy for U.S. governors—equipping her with a rare 360‑degree view of how regulation, capital, and operational execution intersect. That multidisciplinary insight now powers Far Point Global’s most critical decisions, ensuring each transaction advances both client goals and firmwide resilience.

Born in China and fluent in Mandarin, French, and English, Julia bridges cultures as effortlessly as she bridges business lines. She earned a A.B. in Law, Letters, and Society from The University of Chicago and an M.P.P. from the university’s Harris School of Public Policy, where she specialized in data‑driven policymaking. The result: a strategist who pairs quantitative rigor with geopolitical fluency—equally comfortable modeling risk in Python or negotiating across time zones.

Julia’s global perspective and analytical depth make her the firm’s compass, helping navigate Far Point Global through shifting regulatory currents and volatile markets while safeguarding value for every stakeholder involved.

Managing Director, KOTRA & GIH

Young Shin is a Managing Director at Far Point Global, where he turns South Korea’s advanced industrial base into a competitive advantage for the firm’s clients. Partnering closely with KOTRA—the Korea Trade‑Investment Promotion Agency—Young steers sourcing strategy, supplier relations, and on‑the‑ground intelligence, ensuring that every product line moving through the peninsula arrives on schedule, on spec, and on budget.

Young heads two critical pillars of Far Point Global’s platform:

The South Korean Supplier Network—negotiating factory capacity, enforcing quality systems, and securing freight slots in one of Asia’s most technologically sophisticated corridors.

The Global Intelligence Hub—curating market data and risk signals that power the firm’s real‑time advisories on tariffs, FX swings, and geopolitical shifts.

Before joining Far Point Global, Young was Managing Partner at 2N1 Media, where he provided strategic oversight for a portfolio of South‑Korean consumer‑tech brands, driving cross‑border partnerships between Midwest innovators and Asian manufacturers. Earlier in his career, he secured a U.S. patent for a Laser Golf Alignment Device, gaining firsthand experience in global prototyping, IP protection, and mass production—skills he now deploys to de‑risk client launches.

Young earned a B.A. from Boston University, grounding his international work in rigorous business fundamentals and cross‑cultural fluency.
