Rui Tong Lee

I have a diploma in Environment Design, and am passionate in food sustainability, plant cultivation and learning about local produce. Due to my internship, I am very comfortable with hands-on work such as garden maintenance and plant propagation. In my free time, I enjoy making terrariums and leveraging my design knowledge to craft miniature gardens.
