The article, “Dynamic Decision Making through Data Visualization,” appeared in the Spring 2017 edition of the quarterly publication. In it, Dr. Ng focuses on how CPAs can add value to their organizations by leveraging the power of data analytics and visualization software to recognize trends, predict outcomes and test hypotheses. It also describes how data visualization facilitates communication and understanding of complex relationships.

An assistant professor and Undergraduate program director in the Department of Accounting at Temple University, Dr. Ng says that in writing the article, he used as one of his references the textbook from the Business Intelligence course taught by Dr. John Sparco, assistant professor in the College of Business-Graduate at WilmU.

Dr. Ng, who became a full-time faculty member at Temple in January of 2016, received his Bachelor of Science in Economics from Georgia Institute of Technology and his Master of Science in Accounting from Drexel University. He began contributing to the Pennsylvania CPA Journal in 2010, and has authored or co-authored articles on such disparate subjects as for-profit education, managing foreign currency risks, diversity and the CPA profession, and business opportunities in China.
