Building meaningful technology.
About Me
I'm an aspiring technical strategist specialising in Computer Engineering. I'm passionate about building solutions that impact, and thrive at the intersection of tech, people, and product. This summer, I'm interning as an Algorithm Engineer at DSO National Laboratories, optimising clustering algorithms used for de-interleaving signals.
Currently, a Year 3 Computer Engineering student under Nanyang Technological University's Renaissance Engineering Programme, a scholarship program with an accelerated Master's degree in Tech Management.
Outside of tech, I'm always chasing the next challenge. From representing my school National Taekwondo Competitions, to surfing waves in Portugal, performing live as part of a band, and solo-backpacking across Europe, I love pushing myself to explore unfamiliar terrain — physically, creatively, and culturally. Now, I'm taking on a new frontier, training for my first Ironman 70.3 Oceanside in Spring 2026!
