Past Experiences
Since young I have leveraged on small opportunities to create entrepreneurial value, be it offering a school canteen to classroom food delivery service at my secondary school, write a program to consolidate educational questionnaires from the internet to be distributed as pre-examination practises or freelance as a web/mobile app developer and consultant.
During my polytechnic, my friend and I attempted to launch a one-stop wedding services site called, "Diari Pengantin" (The Wedding Diary). Start-up was a new scene in Singapore back then and we faced many challenges in procuring sponsorship and the market to develop and deliver our website. Although this initial start-up venture was eventually put in hiatus, I would continue to value the humbling and enriching experience I had while working on this project.
