About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live every moment. Laugh everyday. Love life.

ABOUT ME

I was brought up in Singapore by an amazing and loving family. I have a huge and awesome family with loads of cousins who just love to have fun. Family, social life, music, sports and the outdoors have always been and will probably always be a part of my life.

Love working with children of varying abilities and backgrounds. I particularly enjoy working with autistic children as they never fail to amaze me.

Like many, a dream of mine would be to travel the World and I have been pretty lucky to have travelled to several places for studies, leisure and voluntary work.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything happens for a reason. Appreciate what you have. Shit happens but we just got to suck it up and move on because I believe that every cloud has a silver lining.
