Description:
Starting as a Call Centre Agent more than 20 years ago to where I am now, I'm fortunate that I have mentors who are not afraid to tell me what I did right & wrong and how I should change. As an individual, I volunteered quite a bit, for example, one organisation that I helped provides free TCM services to elderly and challenged individuals and in another case, I volunteered as a marshal in the Singapore F1 for the past 5 years. In my career, I have been in various roles starting from a coordinator, manager, director, consultant, awards judge so I do have a lot of experience that one can leverage on.
My career took a sharp spike in 20+ and a sharp dip in my 30s - as a result my mental and health was affected, therefore I took a few years off work and here I am now, a better, stronger and healthier being who is happy to share the good and bad stories to inspire others.
I am blessed that teammates, business friends, ex-colleagues trusted me enough to ask me for important career/life advice. Every now and then, someone will tell me what I shared helped, it just makes my day even better. The key to mentoring whether you are a mentor/mentee is to ask, listen, self reflect, action -> repeat.

Years of Experience: 5-10 years
Description: I chose Sport Science for my undergraduate studies in NTU and fell into my specialisation (Performance Analytics) by chance. It stemmed from a decision to complete my Year 4 internship with Singapore Sport Institute’s Biomechanics team, and as I met professionals in the field, one thing led to another and I ended up landing a job at the newly-formed (at that time) National Youth Sports Institute. Having little to no inkling of what career I wanted to pursue, an unexpected path showed itself and I just went with it. My teen self would probably baulk at the idea of finding meaning and enjoyment out of crunching numbers but here I am, with a Master’s degree in Sport Analytics, leading the NYSI Analytics team, and having to admit that... I like big data and I cannot lie.
