Hometown: Singapore

Anticipated Majors: Comparative Literature, Government

Throughout my personal and professional pursuits, I’ve always been interested in exploring the arts, service, and technology. I’ve tutored young Singaporean children in vocabulary, mentored older Singaporean women in digital skills to improve their job opportunities, and been part of a team researching how AI can be used in oncology. In these various efforts, however, I’ve not yet been able to truly merge the worlds of the humanities and technology. That’s why I’m eager to be part of the Milstein Program—to use its expansive resources and engage with like-minded peers to actualize my passions.

Some of my hobbies include reading, collecting records, playing soccer, climbing, making travel videos, photography, and creating art.
