Overview
About Me
Hello! I'm a chilled out, easygoing guy who loves to connect with new people, especially over a drink (or several :P) I'm currently living in the Netherlands 2019 and working as a data scientist.
I'm originally from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and moved to Sydney Australia for ~10 years where I completed my Bachelors in Biochemistry and PhD in Cell Biology
Aside from science, I'm an avid jazz enthusiast - I play the guitar and also sing jazz standards. Recently I've taken up DJ-ing as a hobby and have been having a blast playing progressive/melodic house sets at house parties in the Netherlands
Since Europe is now open for travel I'm really looking forward to (finally) exploring Europe!
