HUSBAND.
FATHER OF TWO.
HATES FLUFF.
Who? What?
I like to learn new things. After my A-levels, I was the source of nourishment for many mosquitoes in the Army, taught math to high school students, organised the first-ever Secondary School Hackathon in Singapore back when Hackathons weren't a dime a dozen, worked with universities, hustled in a startup, angel invested in startups and now working on providing support services that help businesses thrive.
Always open to making a connection and learning more about business.
