Why TSM South Korea?

What motivates you to join TSM?

I've been exposed to entrepreneurship ever since I entered University. These entrepreneurs have inspired me in every single way. Since then, I have been wishing that someday, I'll be able to start up my own business (hopefully, something to give back to the society).

Therefore, I felt that it is a great opportunity for me to join a TSM in SMU so that I'll be exposed to startups companies in other countries & understand the working culture there :)

Why South Korea?

I went to Korea on my 21st birthday and I love it there!!! The culture, the shopping, the people and not forgetting, the food!

Starting a business

What types of businesses interest you?

• Fashion
• Florist
• F&B (Cafes)
• Healthcare

What plans do you have in starting a business?

I always dream of having a cafe with a florist beside it on the 1st storey & dance studios on the 2nd storey & hot yoga studios on the 3rd storey.
But if you ask me to be realistic.... I would probably start up a business that will reach out to the special kids :)

Past Experiences

Describe your past experience (entrepreneurship, or works in start ups etc)

When I was taking CAT, my group and I did a project for Silver Spring Pte Ltd, a startup to help displaced professionals to return to the workforce. In addition, I did my summer internship at Pulsesync which focuses on IT healthcare solution for aged care.

What keeps you ticking?

"Determination will get you through this"
"Good things come to those who have strong faith"
