About Delia Wong
Delia Wong became a caregiver at 19 when her mother suffered a stroke. Years later, her father was diagnosed with cancer, and she found herself caring for both parents.
During this period, her family faced significant financial strain. It shaped Delia’s belief in proper financial planning and sparked her commitment to help future caregivers avoid the hardship she once faced.
Today, Delia is an experienced financial consultant and an avid marathoner. She hopes to share with the caregiving community the insights she has gained from her caregiving journey.
