About

Hello! :) I am a Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering student at NUS, with a deep academic and practical interest in the intersection of bioprocess engineering, pharmaceutical and life sciences and data-driven optimization. Driven by the rapidly evolving industrial landscape, I am actively expanding my technical toolkit into data science and programming problem-solving. I thrive in practical, lab-based environments with hands-on work, and I am actively exploring my interest in academic research. Beyond my academics, I am a digital media creator who loves designing posters and videos, a passionate pianist/keyboardist and an enthusiast of artistic hobbies, especially doodling and calligraphy. If my journey resonates with you, I would love to connect and chat!
