I'm a Singapore-based editor and journalist who is currently the Managing Editor (Music) of NME Networks.

I've been writing for NME since 2019. In 2021, I became Regional Editor (APAC), leading regional sub-brands NME Australia (est. 2019) and NME Asia (est. 2020).

My work has also appeared in NPR Music, W Magazine, Bandcamp Daily, Consequence, Time Out and Bandwagon.

I'm also a founding editor of independent publication Mynah Magazine, which has been publishing deeply reported longform stories about Singapore since 2016.

I attended the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University from 2013-2017 and graduated with a B.Sc in Journalism.
