I’m a Singapore‑based storyteller who moves fluidly between stage lights, classroom whiteboards, and tabletop game maps. Trained in acting at LASALLE for a year but shaped by two decades of hands‑on practice, I treat every space, whether a black‑box theatre, a neighbourhood void deck, or a conference ballroom, as a canvas for shared narrative. My career arcs across 100‑plus productions with companies like Teater Ekamatra and WILD RICE, immersive game‑theatre at Esplanade, voice‑work for podcasts and documentaries, and the co‑founding of TableMinis, the city’s first dedicated Dungeons & Dragons studio. At the heart of all this is a conviction that stories bind communities. I design youth programmes that turn eco lessons into farm adventures, corporate workshops that use improv to unlock team empathy, and live‑play events where strangers become protagonists in a night‑long quest. Whether I’m mentoring fledgling Dungeon Masters, scripting a festival emcee set, or guiding students through a radio‑play project, my aim is the same: give people agency inside a well‑crafted world and watch the magic unfold. Bilingual in English and Malay, comfortable in front of crowds from 10 to 1,000, and equally at home with After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, or a box of hand‑painted miniatures, I thrive on collaboration and constant reinvention. If there’s a story to tell and an audience ready to co‑author it, I’m already sketching the first scene.
