About Me:
I’m a Malaysian of Chinese descent and I spent the first two decades of my life in Kuala Lumpur. After finishing my A Levels, I moved to Australia to further my studies in Environmental Management. Whilst I was in Sydney, I also completed a diploma in veterinary nursing and have been working as a vet nurse since. I’m currently living in Manchester with my husband and two adorable cats. I am an outgoing person and I would consider myself an introverted extrovert. I have lots of interests and love being active. During the pandemic lockdown, indoor gyms weren’t open so I started rock climbing outdoors and absolutely loved it. I would spend a few days a week climbing and hiking with my friends. Besides that, I also enjoy CrossFit, yoga, pole dancing, skiing, scuba diving, swimming, salsa and some racquet sports. I can sing, and play some instruments (piano, guitar, violin/cello) and I like hands-on activities ie painting and pottery. I speak English, Mandarin and Malay, and a tiny bit of French (still have my Duolingo streak). People often ask why have I left Australia as everyone here is dying to move over there! The reason is that being based in the UK gives me access to travel around this part of the world more easily. In just the past 2 years, I’ve already been on more than 10 trips and I’m looking forward to future travels. As I am turning 30 this year, I have set a goal to achieve a secret childhood dream of mine – modelling! It would be really exciting when I do get my first job and I’m very much looking forward to the photoshoot and the whole experience of it!
