About Me
Hi. I’m a software engineering consultant with experience working in various industries including travel, transportation, film, education, social networks, non-profits, and HR. I’ve been doing this since 2001, and am currently based in Malaysia but have spent a lot of time working in different places around the world from Sukabumi to Hungary—both as a solo consultant, as well as alongside engineering teams.
Throughout my life, I’ve also been an amateur videographer, freelance graphic designer, freelance photographer, community grassroots organiser, Assistant Head Prefect, Assistant Scout Troop Leader, and have an above 99%ile IQ score (WAIS-IV, Full-Scale Score 137). I am also grateful for my mixed-race parents for eloping and going against all social norms during their time; and then raising me with the right amount of exposure to books, nature in Borneo, city life in George Town, my first computer and warm chai on Sunday afternoons; and blessing me with 3 siblings too, all of whom I look up to.
Gathering what I’ve learned from my experiences, I now specialise in scaling remote-friendly teams that will be able to solve any of your technological problems.
