About

Human Resources is more than just hiring, offboarding, and managing policies - it is about building a meaningful culture, creating memorable employee experiences, connecting with people, and helping them grow both personally and professionally. My passion for HR began on the very first day of my career at Acer Computers. Watching the HR team handle onboarding and address employee needs with care inspired me to pursue a degree in Business Management with a major in Human Resources, and I have never looked back. With over 10 years of international HR experience, I am a personable and dedicated professional skilled in HR operations, benefits management, and employee relations. I take pride in being approachable and building strong connections across all levels of an organization, while always maintaining professionalism, confidentiality, and compliance. I have had the opportunity to operate as a sole contributor, collaborate effectively within cross-functional teams, and lead HR functions with strategic oversight. 📌 At Burnt Ends Restaurant Pte Ltd, I streamlined HR and payroll processes, reducing administrative time by 40%. 📌 At 4Fingers Pte Ltd, I helped reduce employee turnover by 20% through a detailed and structured recruitment plan. I thrive in fast-paced environments and have a proven ability to manage multiple priorities without compromising on quality or deadlines. Beyond HR, I love crafts, yoga and cooking—hobbies that fuel my creativity, help me bring fresh ideas to work and balanced mindset.
