I lead the offshore market recruitment desk at Calibr:e, a boutique firm headquartered in Singapore. Specializing in global offshore recruitment, I collaborate closely with founders and executives to build scalable teams across diverse industries, both on-site and remotely.
By cultivating trust and leveraging a personalized network, I source top talent in niche industries, often uncovering passive candidates not actively job hunting. Supported by data-driven sourcing specialists, I excel in market mapping and talent identification for hard-to-fill roles and 0-to-1 expansion mandates.
With extensive experience across Asia-Pacific & Japan and fluency in English, Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese, and Thai, I have developed a deep understanding of local business cultures and market dynamics. I also have a proven track record of placing global roles for Asia-based clients and emerging market positions for global clients.
I am passionate about identifying candidates who not only meet qualifications but also align with an organization’s culture and long-term vision, helping businesses secure critical talent for growth. I specialize in sourcing candidates for highly specific roles, tailoring each search to the nuanced requirements of the position to ensure a perfect fit for both immediate needs and future goals.

My career began as a Chartered Accountant at Ernst & Young and PwC, where I developed a strong foundation in Internal Controls, Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), and Financial Reporting (FR). Over the years, I have expanded my expertise through various roles at multinational companies such as Medtronic, Anglo American, Rio Tinto, Kerry Logistics, and Olam.
Throughout my career, I have honed a diverse skill set, including Finance Business Partnering (FBP), Pricing Strategy, Credit Control, Risk Governance, and Maritime Operations. My experience in the commodities sector has equipped me with a strategic mindset and strong analytical capabilities, enabling me to navigate complex challenges, devise innovative solutions, and contribute to long-term organizational success. With such a broad foundation across multiple industries, I am well-prepared to understand and meet the unique needs of various organizations.
In addition to my professional expertise, I consistently treat others with respect and empathy, fostering positive and collaborative relationships. My proficiency in Mandarin Chinese and Korean allows me to communicate effectively with multicultural counterparts and engage with a wider, more diverse community.
Personally, with a spirited soul, I bring passion and enthusiasm to everything I do, inspiring those around me to tackle challenges with energy and optimism. I enjoy discussing binge-watching Kdramas while balancing it with hitting the gym for body combat and boxing classes—striking the perfect harmony between being a couch potato and a fighter.

My career began at industry leaders Glencore and Trafigura, where I immersed myself in the complexities of commodities trading, shipping, and operations. From managing coal logistics to pioneering biodiesel blending, I gained hands-on expertise across diverse energy markets. I later transitioned to SaaS technology sales at Kpler, driving client growth across Asia, and managed LPG operations for one of China's largest importers, further expanding my global perspective.
My coverage spans Oil (Crude, CPP, DPP)/Renewables/Coal/Iron Ore/Base Metals/LPG/LNG across functions such as Trading/Operations/Shipping (Chartering & Operations)/Risk Management/Trade Finance/Business Development/HR.
Over the years, I’ve built a global network grounded in trust, authenticity, and discretion—values that are paramount in our interconnected industry. I approach every professional relationship with the highest regard for confidentiality and mutual respect.
My curiosity now extends to emerging markets like Web3, blockchain, AI, and DeFi. I’m excited to apply my strategic insights and industry experience to help scale businesses, build high-performing teams, and identify transformative talent within these innovative spaces.
I leverage my nuanced understanding of market dynamics and talent acquisition strategies by tapping into a trusted network built on decades of genuine relationships. Whether you're hiring talent, seeking opportunities, or building business strategies, I offer a tailored, confidential approach to achieve your goals.
