Designing, building and tinkering on innovative projects from scratch has always been a passion of mine. When I was 17, I read Shoe Dog by Phil Knight, igniting and re-affirming my entrepreneurial journey.

At 19, I launched my first ever profitable first business fully bootstrapped, investing all my National Service savings into Upcycler Studios, a venture focused on used and upcycled garments. The business grew successfully enough to sustain a brick-and-mortar store and earned recognition from Vogue Singapore in 2025.

My passion for building ambitious projects eventually led me toward technology. Now pursuing a Computer Science degree at NUS, I'm focused on breaking into the technopreneurship space. On the competitive side, I've won hackathons hosted by Cursor, NUS and government organisations like JTC and EMA. On the professional side, I've had experience with a SWE Role @ Upcycler Studios and an AI role @ Lenor under my belt.

Beyond all of that, is my love for building and creating. Thus, I am currently aggressively pursuing as much technical experience I can as an intern at Tiktok to be the best engineer and founder I can be.
