StatusBuilding

I'm a founder and forward deployed engineer based in Singapore. I build software for real business environments — not demo apps.

At Web Wizards SG, I work directly with business owners and teams to identify operational bottlenecks, then design and ship the systems that remove manual work, improve visibility, and support revenue operations. My work spans full-stack development, AI integration, analytics, cloud deployment, workflow automation, and client delivery across Singapore, Vietnam, and China.

Before Web Wizards, I built blockchain infrastructure across the Helium and Cosmos ecosystems, taught JavaScript and Python, and conducted deep tech ecosystem research at Singapore's National Research Foundation under the Prime Minister's Office.

I'm open to roles, collaborations, and selected client engagements that value ownership, adaptability, and end-to-end execution.

Get in touch

Have a business problem that needs software, automation, or AI?

I work best where the problem is messy, operational, and real. I can help define the bottleneck, design the system, build the product, deploy it, and keep improving it after launch.
