Welcome to my website. I document my adventures and reflections in work, family, life and everything in between. Hope you have a nice stay!
All in How I Went About
I can’t wait for 2024 to be over. Just when I thought things can’t get worse than 2023, 2024 proved to be a worse, if not one of the worst years for me. On this very last day of the year, I’m penning down some of the best and worst memories. As a reflection - and down the road - a reminder to myself the things I have experienced and overcome.

I will focus on are the 3 transition chapters in my career:
From banking 🏦 to laser tag 🔫
From employer to startup employee
From untimely departure to ecommerce industry in Covid19
This video was made as a presentation to students at Singapore Management University (SMU), my alma mater, as part of a wider presentation / sharing session together with my Shopify colleagues. Video was filmed on 28 Jan 2022 and presented on 31 Jan 2022. Here lies summary of the video content.
Some background and context:
My tenure at Lazada spans from Nov 20219 to Jan 2022, a little over 2 years
It’s my opinion that e-commerce is a fast-moving industry, further accelerated by factors like Covid19 and competitors’ movements in the time I was at the company
I had 2 separate roles within my tenure - 1. merchant acquisition for LazMall (a channel within Lazada) 2. business development for Lazada omnichannel solutions (details on my LinkedIn)
Internally, I worked with local and regional teams and across functions like customer care team, product & tech teams
More than 60% of my tenure was Working-from-Home (WFH)
I took some time on the research and decision-making process and ended up getting the desk which I was adamant against from the beginning. I thought I'd document the process and considerations. If you're thinking about whether to get one and/or which one to get, I hope this benefits you.
