“My Spotify Wrapped top artist has been the same for about three or four years now, so I think it'll be the same this year—Paramore. They’re my first and forever love.”

”My dream project would be to design an aquarium. My favourite animal is the IKEA shark—just kidding! I think hammerheads are pretty cool.”

“As a paper artist, I try to pick out projects that are in line with what I’m trying to explore, or ones that give me more exposure. But I also have a day job as a designer, so sometimes I have to force myself to pull the brakes instead of just making and making and making!”

“I’m a power plant operator in Tuas. You know lah, parents in the past want their kids to study in fields like engineering, so I decided to give it a try and now, almost a decade later, I’d say I’ve become quite comfortable in this industry which is why I decided to stick with it.”

“I love reading, watching films, collecting trinkets, and visiting art exhibitions—basically anything that I’m able to do on my own. I enjoy having time to myself, it’s very therapeutic and also flexible for me as I can explore and go at my own pace.”

“I lead a small team of workplace consultants at a real-estate company. As leaders, we often have an oversight when it comes to the details of day-to-day happenings, so I try to be sensitive and open to the team, treating them as collaborators and involving them in key decisions.”

“One of my favourite bands is Son Lux. If you didn’t know, they composed the soundtrack album for the film Everything Everywhere All at Once. Their music is very cinematic and almost cerebral, blending a lot of sounds while still being rooted in melody.”

"I’d say my style is comfortable and timeless, with a touch of Japanese accents. I like to visit Japan every year during spring or summer and that’s where I collect my outfits for the year, so I don’t shop for clothes much in Singapore.”

“I get very anxious when I’m alone, so I’m trying to spend more time by myself because legit nobody cares. So far, I’ve gone shopping alone a few times and I’ve even tried eating alone, which was very scary. But again, nobody cares!”

“In my free time, I enjoy building mechanical keyboards and customising everything from the switches to the layout. I’ve also just picked up skateboarding after wanting to do so for a long time. There’s a constant fear of falling since I’m not as young as I used to be, but it’s a hobby I wish to continue.”

“When you’re interested in something, be it math or art, the innate passion to explore is exactly the same. As a math and science educator, I see so much beauty in even geometric shapes and numbers, although my students will tell you otherwise!”

“I’m currently working in Singapore, but I'm originally from Inner Mongolia and I really miss my parents back home. For the past three years, we’ve been connecting frequently through video calls, but now that the borders are opening, I’m making plans to visit them soon.”
