Summary

I am a dynamic leader with a proven track record at Sunflower Preschool@MINDEF-DEPOT. I specialize in enhancing staff performance through strategic leadership and operational efficiency. I thrive in staff management and mentoring and I spearheaded grant applications resulting in significant funding which assisted the school and staff in enhancing our curriculum and environment. I have also led various community engagement programs over the 7 years in Sunflower and achieved a notable SPARK commendation in the year 2022, showcasing my ability to blend organizational management with curriculum leadership.


I am currently looking to expand my skill set in a different environment and looking for a challenge outside of a school environment. I thrive in work settings relating to staff development and I hope to be given an opportunity to showcase my strength in your organisation.
