Why TSM Silicon Valley?

The only way to get rich nowadays is to get someone to buy you work. Like WhatsApp.

My motivation is to know what, and how they do. I am interning at a startup now - But I would like to learn the difference between startups in Singapore and Silicon Valley. With technology taking the front seat in todays world, I would like to capitalise on this possibility.

For now I am waiting for a divine inspiration to tell me, what can I do for technology, like how it has done for me. And I believe I will get that inspiration in TSM Silicon Valley.

Internship Opportunities

Interested in internships in Analytics and/or in Big Iron computing.

IBM Probably the oldest IT company in the world. It's interesting how it always stays relevant in todays world. Even with their Mainframes. Having interned as a Mainframe System Programmer, the experience made me fall in love with Mainframes. If possible, I would like to intern as a Mainframe System Programmer again.


Starting a business

  • Lifestyle IT solution

Finance IT tools are abundant, ERPs too are abundant. What I feel is lacking, and what will make money will be lifestyle products that everyday consumers use. A business that change lives of all.

Past Experiences

  • System Administrator Intern at a startup
  • Mainframe System Programmer at Citi
