Chong Mun Hay

Summary

As a Sociology student studying in NTU, I believe that my passion for writing will be indispensable when it comes to editorial or creative work. Creativity is a necessity to me, and I would be ecstatic to have my ideas and capacity for innovation pushed to their limits in a welcoming workspace. As the saying goes, there is no gain without pain. I look forward to an empowering and fulfilling environment that has no qualms about stretching my writing and editing abilities.
