Background & Key Achievements

Over the past 20 years, I’ve gained a broad range of experiences from postings in MOE, MSE, MSF/ECDA, MND, MTI and MINDEF. Interesting work includes regulating and developing the preschool sector, setting up KidSTART, working with agencies and activists on land development plans, WOG coordination on environmental sustainability, food/water security, trade negotiations with India, to name a few. I enjoyed a 3-month stint at the UN General Assembly and completed a MPA at Kennedy School of Government.

Steadfastly married with 3 children.

How Can I Help

I can offer (1) my experience and perspectives in the public service (2) thoughts on leading teams and personal mastery including managing stress (3) how to work well and adapt quickly to different bosses and areas of work… whatever life throws at you :)
