Why Virtual TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

Being an entrepreneur is something that never crossed my mind. I always imagined myself working a 9-6 job. However, it has always been a wish of mine to learn how to start my own business. There is alot of thought process and things to consider when setting up a business. I came to this understanding through my last job which was at a startup and experienced firsthand the amount of work that goes into creating a business. This sparked my interest and I grew to learn how to be able to manage a business. I think this TSM is a great starting opportunity to see if this is the path I would like to go for in the future. Overall, I believe that with the things I have learnt in SMU will make me a valuable asset as well as provide me the opportunity to grow.

  • Where would you like to visit?

In Seoul: KBS, Hyundai, Samsung

Starting a business

  • What types of business interest you?

Companies that work in IT consulting interest me. I think they are the perfect intersection between technology and business. With the knowledge I have learnt from my second major Finance, I believe that I can be the bridge in sharing ideas with both the tech and the business teams. I think there are many who work specifically in either tech or business but only a handful have in depth understanding of both sides and that is what I hope to achieve.

  • What plans do you have in starting a business?

Currently, I am trying to absorb as much information as possible through university and the experiences it has to offer. Once I understand how it is to work in a business, I think I will feel ready in the near future to start a business. If I were to start a business, I probably will get started as a small business selling home made items and work my way up in building it.
