About

“Being myself is what got me to where I am today.” I was 18 when I first raced for a Regatta. Not metaphorically—I literally rowed and rowed. While I was rowing, I thought about quitting approximately 100 times. (And that’s probably an estimate.) But despite the rain, high crashing waves, mental and physical fatigue, and a taste of camaraderie, I kept pushing on. And today, I’m that person. Once I say I’ll do something, it will happen definitely. Now, I put that perseverance to work as a student here at Singapore Management University (SMU). I don’t race for Regattas anymore…but I still draw the most of my energy when I am working with people and teams. Especially, when it helps to bring the best out of both myself and others as well. I’m well-versed in financial planning, negotiations, relationship management, and scheduling (as a student, who am I kidding).Still, if you’re interested in grabbing coffee and talking shop (or even, to hear why I stopped rowing), please send an email my way. Cheers!
