Why TSM New York City ?
- New York City, the city where dreams are made of! I would love to see how Wall Street is working in tandem with Technology Firms to improve customer experiences. My area of interest is in Transactional Banking which has seen a tremendous improvement due to more transparent and efficient methods in place in recent years.
Starting a business
- Innovate or get left behind. By leveraging on technology to disrupt traditional industries, I'm interested in looking out for blue ocean opportunities.
- Since I'm interested in Commodities Trading, I want to develop a platform which reduces fraud (prevalent in the industry), therefore increasing trust between buyers and sellers with the aid of Blockchain and IoT.

What keeps you ticking?
