About

I’m a strategic operations and client services leader with years of progressive experience at CMC Markets, where I’ve led regional transformation across service delivery and operational infrastructure. Starting from the frontlines as a Client Services Executive, I worked my way up to Head of Client Services and Operations, trusted with building and scaling high-performing teams in Singapore. Notably, I designed a global knowledge base adopted across multiple markets, and was handpicked to regional offices for cross-country collaboration to localize the CMC Invest platform — an initiative that led to me setting up the Singapore Business Operations function from scratch. I’ve built capabilities across multiple operational functions, aligning them closely to business goals. I bring a hands-on understanding of customer needs, a sharp focus on operational scalability, and a bias for designing systems that accelerate growth. I’m passionate about developing teams, improving workflows, and making businesses run smarter.
