About Me

I am a 4th year student in Nanyang Technological University's Renaissance Engineering Programme, pursuing a degree in Engineering (Computer Science) and Masters in Technology Management.

I have built a strong foundation in computer science concepts, having done multiple projects at school and at my previous internship. Through my Masters in Technology Management, I have gained good knowledge of management and business concepts that I can apply to my future work.

In my free time, I enjoy designing interfaces of products that I use daily and also conceptualise new ideas for different products.
