I signed on with the Republic of Singapore Air Force in 2014 after graduating with a diploma in Aerospace Technology at Ngee Ann Polytechnic.
Following six years as an Air Force maintenance engineer, I was contemplating a mid-career switch and upgrading my skills.My thoughts about the future were bleak, but eventually, I felt a strong calling towards nature. I’ve always loved the outdoors, and I’ve been monitoring how human actions have affected the environment.
I tried hard to secure a scholarship to fund my education. I applied to various organisations and consulted many people for advice. I felt grateful that things panned out despite the uncertainties. This motivated me to excel in my studies.After multiple interviews and applications, I became a duty manager for a foreign worker dormitory for about five months.It was a gruelling two years, supporting my family, concentrating on studies, balancing work, and being president of the university student council.Two of my uncles passed on in 2020 and 2021.
I also could not have achieved this without the support from my loved ones and friends who encouraged me to strive for the best.
