About
Greetings! I am a Software Engineer at Grab, and I work with business critical applications on a day-to-day basis, aiming to optimise the existing and launch new impactful features which help drive Southeast Asia forward. I enjoy learning technologies, and thrive on building innovative products which solve real-world problems. My strong problem-solving skills, coupled with my ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, enable me to deliver high-quality solutions that meet business requirements. In my free time, you can probably find me breaking a sweat on the football pitch or going for a casual jog in the neighbourhood. Staying active is important to me, as I truly believe it helps shape a balanced and productive lifestyle.
