Victor and Alice Chiou
Executive Field Vice Presidents & 2006 Dream Team Members
As immigrants from Taiwan, Victor and Alice Chiou know from first-hand experience just how elusive the American Dream can be. After completing multiple graduate degrees in the U.S., working for several Fortune 500 companies, trying a few multi-level companies and then owning their own business for 16 years, the Chious were not getting ahead. In late 1996, they were introduced to Market America, which opened the door to their dreams. Now, as Executive Field Vice Presidents and members of the 2006 Dream Team, Victor and Alice have a wealth of information to share about how Market America can make dreams come true.
