Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I've always had my eye on TSM as the study mission allows me to not just research but learn from the field. I'm also interested in the startup scene and would like to gain some inspiration from the wide diversity in Silicon Valley — from seed-level startups to major tech businesses.

Silicon Valley: Google, Meta
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
I'm open to exploring what's out there! But I mainly had my eye on the intersection between social and tech entrepreneurship; creating or tapping on tech that serves to empower a community!
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
In a similar vein, I've always wanted to become a socio-technopreneur myself! I'm involved in volunteer work in Singapore and Philippines to get to know the different vulnerable groups and their needs. So, I'd like to create products that not only uplift the vulnerable but can value-add to others as well!
