✨ Experience design and facilitation at uncommon conferences, where we empower you, through uncommon in-person & online gatherings, to drive change, joyfully and meaningfully. Specialising in maritime, energy, infrastructure, resources and tech.

🌏 Third-generation Singaporean of South Indian heritage, I immigrated with my family to Perth, Western Australia as a teenager. Soon after graduating as a journalist, I moved to Shanghai, China where I had the privilege of living and working for 13 years, learning Mandarin along the way. I now live, work and gather on Whadjuk Noongar Boodja (Perth), interstate, worldwide and online.

💻 Professionally, I’m a “content and connection” junkie with over 20 years' global experience across the maritime, media, conferencing and publishing industries. What does that mean? I create & curate a wide range of content and experiences that connect people, meaningfully and joyfully.

👩🏾‍🎓Executive MBA from Columbia University, London Business School & University of Hong Kong

⚡ I'm passionate about the big picture without losing sight of the small, crucial details. My diverse and international background makes me an ideal bridge – between people, organisations and ideas.

🗺 Current favourite cities are; Helsinki, Munich, NYC, Tel Aviv, London, Milano, Tokyo, Shanghai and of course, Noongar Boodja/Perth (in an order that changes frequently).
