About

The most interesting problems in tech sit at the intersection of business strategy, user needs, and engineering reality. I started on the engineering side. At Accenture and Deloitte, I worked on enterprise integrations and digital transformation programmes, eventually leading cross-functional teams and owning the delivery end-to-end. That experience is what led me to NUS for an MBA in Strategy and Finance. I wanted the commercial and analytical layer on top of seven years of hands-on technical execution, the ability to move from "how do we build this" to "should we build this, and what would it actually be worth." Most recently at Temus, I supported business development for Singapore's public healthcare sector, helping shape how AI and digital solutions are positioned for government agencies. What I care about now: building products that actually solve something. The conversion funnel that's leaking. The workflow that's broken. The user experience that's confusing. Product is where the analytical thinking I enjoy meets direct business impact. I'm currently exploring Product Manager, Digital Product Owner, and Digital Strategy roles in Singapore.
