A UX designer with a unique journey shaped by experiences in kitchens and the public sector.

My time in F&B—as an assistant pastry chef and a hawker—taught me to embrace diverse needs with empathy and curiosity. I constantly asked “How can I create something that truly meets someone's needs?” Today, that mindset drives my user‑centered design approach.


At the Defence Science and Technology Agency and the Ministry of Education, I applied it to recruitment marketing, using user research to uncover what resonates with prospective employees and crafting targeted messaging to attract top talent.


Extending this mindset to talent management, I leveraged my strong stakeholder management skills to balance business objectives with teachers’ career aspirations.

Why Product Design?

I’ve always loved creating—whether it’s baking, cooking, or sewing. I find joy in making something from scratch and iterating until my vision comes to life. Product design allows me to combine my creativity and problem solving to develop solutions that truly add value to people’s lives.
