About
I am a lawyer-turned software developer. Trained in the art of language (read: legalese), I now seek to express myself in the language of tech (read: code). I enjoy the creative process of building "things", which run the gamut from a piece of wooden furniture, a cup of experimental coffee, a Spotify playlist, a photography portfolio, a championship-winning team on Football Manager, to digital products.With my background in intellectual property and tech law, my goal is to build safe and ethical products that positively impact the world.
Experience
I have worked in multiple start-ups and social enterprises previously. My last job was an IP Tech Lawyer at Baker McKenzie.Wong & Leow.
Education
I graduated from the National University of Singapore with a Bachelor of Laws. More recently, I graduated from a Software Engineering bootcamp with General Assembly.
