Leaders should have the quality to mediate the issues and work for the welfare of the whole group. Everyone’s opinion must be respected and taken into consideration in order to promote true knowledge.

Besides my passion for academics, my industry experience coupled with the pursuit for excellence enables me to add value to the education sector. I have no special talent but I am passionately curious. I strongly believe in an old adage “Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death.” The education sector provides me with the right platform to nurture a lifetime value – transferable skills get carried on as accumulated knowledge.
