Interests
As a person of curiosity and spontaneity, often acting on bursts of energy, I've cultivated a diverse range of hobbies and enthusiastically pursued numerous creative and active interests. In this section, I would like to share my personal achievements and the milestones I've been privileged to experience.
Sailing, Windsurfing (Penang)
2003 - 2013
With over 20 years of sailing experience, I've excelled in diverse categories, including being a qualified state representative for the Optimist boat and Bic Techno windsurfing - representing Pulau Pinang in various nation wide regattas and returning with medals. I'm proficient in both single-handed and double-handed dinghies and currently exploring the IQ Foil windsurf for new challenges.
Local Paddle Board Instructor
For three enriching months, I guided leisure paddle board sessions along Tanjung Bunga Beach, sharing the serene beauty of Penang's coastlines and the joy of paddle boarding with local enthusiasts. This experience allowed me to foster a deep connection between people and the tranquil waters of Penang.

Gardening E-journal
Embarking on a personal journey, I've cultivated and captured my love for home gardening in a digital journal. This curated space invites you to witness the flourishing beauty of my at-home oasis, where every pixel narrates the growth, blossoms, and stories of the plants that have found a home under my care. Join me in celebrating the art of cultivation and the simple joys of nurturing life in my digital garden journal.
BSAC Qualified Ocean Diver
2023
Transitioning from surface exploration, I've decided to venture into being a certified BSAC Ocean Diver, exploring the enchanting world beneath the waves. This experience has deepened my appreciation for marine biology and further fueled my passion for sailing, a sport inherently powered by the natural forces of the sea.

Small Businesses
In the world of e-commerce, I've had a space where art meets individual expression. My focus was on delivering bespoke hand-drawn artworks printed on acrylic canvases, each piece meticulously framed in wood for a touch of sophistication. This venture blends creativity with online accessibility, offering a personalized and captivating art-buying experience.
Coffee Brewing E-journal
In my pursuit of joy, I've meticulously journaled my love for brewing coffee, exploring cozy cafes, embarking on culinary adventures, and weaving through the tapestry of my travels. This digital journal beckons you to share in the richness of freshly brewed experiences, indulge in the diverse flavors of global cuisines, and traverse the world alongside me, savoring the unique tales that each cup, bite, and destination unfolds in this vibrant chronicle of life's flavorful and adventurous moments.

Rotary 3300: Blessing Shelf
The Blessing Shelf is a project initiated by Rotary Club of PJ, together with Rotary Clubs and communities around our nation, to ‘’take what you need, or leave what you can give’’.
