Summary

Singapore-born and now based in Melbourne, I’m pursuing my Master’s in Banking and Finance at Monash University while playing rugby for the university team. I’ve built a track record of juggling multiple responsibilities — from working two jobs at a time to completing two years of National Service in Singapore — without losing my energy or enthusiasm. I’m friendly, approachable, and thrive on connecting with people from all walks of life. Outside of work and study, you’ll find me on the rugby field, deep in a gaming session, or throwing myself into new challenges just to keep life exciting. I see work not just as a way to earn, but as the perfect outlet to learn, contribute, and keep myself grounded while pushing toward bigger goals.
