Summary

Driven by my soul’s purpose to design spaces and shape narratives that empower emotions and inspire self-fulfillment, I’ve consistently sought out opportunities that sharpen my ability to create sustainable, human-centered impact across industries. I began my journey in media and communications as a diploma holder in Chinese Media & Communications, where I led multiple large-scale initiatives as an EXCO member of various co-curricular clubs and as the Project Manager, Marketing Director, Event Coordinator, and Film Director of Project Y(OUR)S. Alongside my roles as President of the Korean Cultural Club, TEDx Operations Director, and Welfare Director of The Sandbox Advocates, I honed my skills in event management, strategic communications, and leadership—laying the foundation for my belief in purposeful, people-centric design. Professionally, I embarked on a short stint at the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) as their Engagement Manager, where I led internal engagement campaigns for the Inspection & Supervisory Methodologies department’s AIDA tools and C&C frameworks, deepening my appreciation for institutional communication and civic responsibility. Prior to that, I worked at Wateroam, a social enterprise that designs clean water solutions for humanitarian aid, where I witnessed firsthand the intersection of design, sustainability, social entrepreneurship, and humanitarian impact. Today, I am pursuing a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture at the National University of Singapore, with a minor in Innovation & Design. This step into landscape design as a new medium for social healing and systems transformation marks a major milestone—one that brings me closer to a larger vision: to design physical environments that nurture well-being, inclusivity, and empowerment. From managing brand partnerships as a content creator to leading multidisciplinary projects across sectors, every opportunity I’ve pursued serves a single agenda: to build a more emotionally empowering and socially sustainable future for the next generation.
