ABOUT ME

With a background in communications and project management, ​I’ve spent my career at the intersection of creativity and ​leadership. My journey began under the mentorship of MYY Living ​Arts, Miri’s vibrant creative platform, where I honed my skills in ​curating and leading cultural initiatives.

My first breakthrough came during the Borneo Lab “Shine The ​Light” Programme, where I had the honour of curating Sarawak’s ​inaugural NFT exhibition, DUALity of Arts. This experience sparked ​my passion for blending art and technology, pushing boundaries, ​and bringing fresh, innovative perspectives to the creative ​industry.

While I began my academic journey in TESL (Teaching English as a ​Second Language), the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted my studies. ​Though I haven’t completed my degree yet, I look forward to ​continuing my education when the opportunity arises. In the ​meantime, I channel my passion into creating impactful projects ​and leading teams to success.

Professionally creative, I thrive on building unique narratives, ​connecting communities, and driving innovative ideas to fruition.

I organised talks on cryptocurrencies and NFT Arts, ​discussing their impact on the world. The exhibition and talks ​received support from various state and federal agencies, ​marking my debut as a curator and organiser of such an ​event.
