Making others' lives a little bit easier
I have a strong passion for improving other's lives, which led me to pursue a diploma in Psychology during my polytechnic days in a bid to further understand difficulties people face. Even though I've switched to IS, I'm glad to say that this passion still burns strong in me, which led me to join Conjunct Consulting. During my first cycle as an associate consultant, I saw how technology can be married perfectly with helping others, where we provided UIUX and functionality improvements to our client's website, improving the user journey of beneficiaries. Having seen first hand how technology can benefit others in a tangible manner not only validated my decision to join IS, but also gives me an immense sense of gratification.
Story telling
I've always loved hearing individuals talk about their interests and experiences. One such way of sharing these stories is through short films. Making videos has been a hobby of mine since my family got our first digital camera when I was 9. I've made countless videos throughout my polytechnic days and have entered a few short film competitions as well. I've also been blessed with the opportunity to make a few promotional videos for small startups in Singapore, and even helped my Statistics Professor, Ms Rosie, record and edit a 45 minute film for our STATX project. I must admit, I still have much to learn in this regard, but my strong interest in this leads me to constantly improve my skills.
