About me: I was born in London and am originally from Malaysia. I studied aerospace engineering as an undergraduate, then completed a masters in management of technology, which gave me the chance to live and study in Singapore.
My career has spanned technology, consulting and retail: go-to-market strategy at Cisco, strategy consulting at Accenture, and digital product strategy at Tesco, focusing on Clubcard.
I chose London Business School to support my pivot into private equity, pairing my background in operational value creation with the financial toolkit to match. The strength of the finance faculty and London’s position at the heart of Europe’s private equity market made London Business School the obvious choice. Alongside the MBA, I’m interning at a healthcare buy-and-build platform. The sectors I’m most excited about are healthcare and consumer tech.
Outside the classroom, I’m on the Golf Club Executive Committee (still chasing a lower handicap), and you’ll find me supporting Brentford FC or planning my next trip.
I’m always happy to chat with anyone thinking about pivoting through the MBA, or about starting the MBA with a partner.
Three topics I can be approached about: Tech; pivoting career; studying with a partner.
