Jay Lim

An ambitious and driven individual, I am not afraid to step out of my comfort zone to learn new skills and embrace new challenges. I founded MACRO Learning with two like-minded friends, with the aim of revolutionizing the tuition industry. On top of being on confident leader, I am a critical thinker, good communicator and meticulous worker.

I am currently seeking an internship in the private banking / asset and wealth management industry.
