Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Trying my best to change the world. If not, trying my best not to get in the way of people trying to do so.
ABOUT ME
I'm passionate about technology and entrepreneurship! I love comics, graphic novels, books, gadgets, films, music (mostly alternative though), and i have a penchant for adventure and the unknown!
My favorite drinks are: coffee, coffee, whiskey and more coffee. Sometimes green tea.
Some say i'm a geek, and i wear it like a badge.
Current location: Bishan, Singapore.
I guess most importantly, i hope to change the world for the better one day. = )
PHILOSOPHY
My favorite from my favorite author, who is none other than Neil Gaiman, creator of The Sandman series (and several successful novels) -
"You don't have to stay anywhere forever."
