03 / A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Business-minded.
People-centred.

Yilin.

The space between a good idea and the people who can bring it to life.

At Singapore Management University, I study Strategic Management and OBHR. Outside the classroom, that has taken me from talent initiatives at Singtel to stories for SPH Media, school exchanges and the day-to-day realities of a growing business.

I enjoy finding the story, bringing the right people together and following through on the details. Working fluently in English and Mandarin helps me connect across teams, audiences and borders.
