Where The Work Is Heading
I am an incoming PhD student in Management (Real Estate) at the Department of Real Estate, NUS Business School,
beginning in August 2026. That next phase is a natural extension of the direction this site has been moving toward:
deeper work on housing markets, stronger analytical rigor, and a longer-term research agenda around property
systems, urban dynamics, and market behaviour.
That direction sits naturally beside the systems side of my work. Both are ultimately about the same thing: taking
fragmented, noisy systems and turning them into something clearer, more reliable, and more useful for decision
making.
Professional Background
My recent professional work was shaped heavily by my time at Ohmyhome, where I worked across market research,
geospatial analysis, automation, executive dashboards, compliance systems, digital marketing analytics, and
decision-support for leadership. That period pushed me from broad analytics work into a much more specific focus on
how housing markets and operational systems function in practice.
Earlier roles at Standard Chartered, Singtel Cyber Security, Jones Lang LaSalle, and the Singapore Police Force
gave me a broader foundation across reporting, process improvement, governance, and business problem-solving. The
through-line was always the same: reduce ambiguity, build better systems, and make decisions more defensible.
Education and Research Foundation
My background combines business, analytics, and management. I graduated from the University of Birmingham with
First Class Honours in International Business and later completed a Master's degree in Analytics and Visualizations
at the Singapore University of Social Sciences, where my research focused on using geospatial methods to improve
real-estate price prediction in Singapore, working with approximately 1.5 million transaction rows.
That combination still shapes how I work now. I care about technical depth, but I care just as much about whether
the output is actually usable by operators, managers, journalists, policymakers, or the public.
What This Site Is For
This site is becoming a record of the work I want to keep compounding over the long term: housing-market research,
analytical systems, media commentary, technical infrastructure, and doctoral research. It is meant to show both the
ideas and the machinery behind them.
