Career progression since TP?After TP,  I completed my first bachelor's degree, Bachelor of Legal Studies (BLS) (Hons). I subsequently worked with the State Legal Advisor of Johor for a year in 2013 and then as Senior Legal Advisor at an IT company in Shah Alam during 2014. The opportunity arose to work at Ministry of Finance as Strategic & Corporate Communication Officer for eight months. Later, I furthered my studies in 2015 and 2016. I obtained my LL.B. (Hons) in 2016 following which I joined a startup company that focuses on block chain and cryptocurrency. This led to the position of Legal Officer with the Employees Provident Fund (EPF).

Personal highlights? 
Got to know Mathew up close and personal and also many other new people which I enjoyed  verymuch. The biggest personal highlight for me was the TP Dinner: first event I brought my then girlfriend to, who is now my beloved wife!

Reflections on your time in Kuala Lumpur and at Thomas Philip?
It was among my best experiences ever even though I was in second year and being taken mistakenly as a final year Law student. But it was fun and I learnt a lot and managed to get to know other people as well.
