Why TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

As a tech enthusiast with amateur entrepreneurial ambitions, TSM presents itself to me as a befitting venture. Why tech? Because it gives one the unparalleled potential to positively impact the lives of huge populations and make the world a better place, which sounds pretty powerful to me. Also because, simply put, I enjoy building things and watching them radiate in the hands of users, and technology allows me to do just that. Almost nothing in the world could be more satisfying.

Entrepreneurship is where I leverage technology to solve problems and challenge the status quo. The best tech products we rely on every single day had been born out of a desire to address problem(s) that most people faced, but chose to live with rather than "seek redress". I was a developer of SMUMods, a 100% student-run initiative that's looking to redefine the college experience. As an SMU student myself, I tackle common challenges students face (in particularly when in comes to bidding) by developing innovative solutions that makes their student life a more smooth-sailing ride.

Here is a Medium article if you are interested to know more about my journey building the SMUMods Analytics feature that was hailed a "game changer" by SMU students.

  • Where do you NOT want to travel for TSM?

I do not have strong objections against traveling to any country. (Honestly, to be able to travel again any time soon would be a godsend blessing, so I don't intend to get picky)

Starting a business

  • What types of business interest you?
  • What plan do you have in starting a business?

Past Experiences (optional)

  • List your startup experiences

What keeps you ticking?

  • Say something about you
