Neste's vision of creating a healthier planet for our children excited me 6-7 years ago. Having lived in Singapore for more than a decade, I appreciate that we must all conserve and cherish what we are inheriting today, as none of it was easy to have in the past. Hence, I am committed to put the community, country and our Earth in a better state than what I found it in yesterday!

I serve as a primary consultant for developing impactful investment proposals. I am currently spearheading asset development strategies, crafting proposals to enhance business sustainability and growth for Neste's Singapore renewable fuel refineries.

I also mentor junior engineers, conducting reviews, providing technical guidance, and fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement.

Additionally, I have championed process improvements, streamlining operations and increasing productivity by 15%.

Even working with the world's largest renewable manufacturer, convincing internal stakeholders not to de-accelerate the mission to leave behind a healthier planet for our children can be quite challenging! A common challenge that I face is coming up with a compelling business case where stakeholders remain fully committed to either build a resilient refinery or make a change to continue producing more.

Gathering factual data to sell a business case is never easy. However, I have realised that such data can often be found when talking to and engaging all your stakeholders. Hence, for me, in order to continue delivering what I enjoy, I have to keep engaging all my stakeholders (internal & external) effectively.

I am most proud of my professional journey with Neste, where I learnt and contributed towards producing liquid renewable fuels which significantly reduce carbon emissions. The insights to be gained from the entire business value chain, and the challenges and opportunities to grow continue to excites me.
