Highlights
A little about me
Three things worth knowing
Shades of Expression
I spent 15 years learning many different art mediums, and my favorite was charcoal. I've even conducted multiple workshops for children and adults alike.
A Game of Clues
Treasure hunts have held a special place in my heart ever since they became a birthday tradition. My team's five-year winning streak is a cherished memory.
Ink, Paper, Possibilities
I have an ever-growing collection of stationery. I can never resist buying new notebooks, over 90% of which are still empty.
Favourite Reads
Books I always come back to.
Educated
Tara Westover
“A testament to the power of learning to remake yourself.”
Harry Potter
J.K. Rowling
“The series that made me fall in love with reading.”
In Order to Live
Yeonmi Park
“Courage and freedom, told without flinching.”
Poor Economics
Banerjee & Duflo
“Changed how I think about poverty and policy.”
Almanack of Naval Ravikant
Eric Jorgenson
“A manual for thinking about wealth and happiness.”
Best advice I've ever received
“The answer is always no if you don't ask.”
I live by this quote ingrained in me by my dad. The worst that can happen is a no you already have.
As a child, my dream was to be
A Detective
I was fascinated by mysteries and endlessly curious. My first role model was Nancy Drew. That curiosity never left. It just found a new home — in strategy, systems, and the quiet thrill of figuring things out.
