About

Result-oriented and driven by an insatiable hunger for knowledge, I have an unwavering determination to succeed in all my ventures. I strive to not only study complex systems but also be an architect of them. Currently reading Chemical Engineering at NUS under the Engineering Scholars Programme. My work ranges from researching bimetallic catalysts for carbon capture to developing AI-driven workflows and national energy systems frameworks. I am relentlessly striving for self-improvement and looking to connect with like-minded builders, investors, and innovators. Let's connect!
