I'm a product marketer who's a little obsessed with why people do what they do.
That curiosity started with a Psychology degree and hasn't stopped since! It's taken me from launching baby brands across APAC, to growing a furniture startup's app, to working alongside Google PMMs to drive adoption on one of India's largest fintech platforms.
What I've learned across all of it: people don't adopt products because they're well-designed. They adopt them because something made them feel understood, excited, or like they finally found what they were looking for. My job is to engineer that moment.
I care about the human on the other side of every campaign I build. And I'm at my best when I get to sit at the intersection of product, psychology, and storytelling.
Take a look around β and if something resonates, I'd love to chat!

Most marketing fails at the last mile. Not because the strategy was wrong, but because somewhere between the boardroom and the banner, the human got lost.
I believe:
β’ Positioning isn't about what you say. It's about what your user feels when they realise your product was made for them.
β’ The best campaigns don't feel like campaigns. They feel like good timing.
β’ Data tells you what's happening. Psychology tells you why. You need both to build something that lasts.
π Scaled GTM for 270M+ users at Google Pay, translating complex financial architecture into localised consumer narratives across India.
π³ Executed the full-funnel strategy for the Flex Credit launch, securing 20k+ applications through technical-to-benefit positioning.
π Driven 350% revenue growth for high-growth startup by architecting high-cadence multivariate testing framework that reduced CPI by 62%.
π Launched 4 brands across Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong, building zero-to-one global brand identities and securing 90+ strategic partnerships.
π― The Challenge: Launching Google Payβs first digital credit card in a "debit-first" market.
π The Mission: Bridge the gap between complex engineering signals and a simple, reward-driven user journey.
π The Win: 20,000+ applications in Phase 1 via a data-optimised lifecycle strategy.
π― The Challenge: Singapore's first-time homeowners are overwhelmed. The HDB renovation journey is complex, expensive, and full of decisions nobody prepares you for. Most content online is either too generic or trying to sell you something.
π The Mission: Build a trusted, product-led content brand that demystified the homeowner journey β using real tools, real numbers, and a real couple's experience as the content itself. The goal was to create genuine authority in a noisy space without a budget or a brand name behind us.
π The Win: Secured a strategic content partnership with HDB (Singapore's national housing authority), co-creating educational videos and a featured article for first-time flat buyers. Generated SGD$20k in brand sponsorships within 4 months through 12 strategic partnerships β all inbound, all values-aligned.
βοΈ What made it work: We didn't start with content. We started with a product β a free ID Presentation Deck and Property Tracker built to solve a real user problem. The tools created trust. The trust created community. The community created commercial opportunity. That's the PMM instinct applied to personal brand building.
π― The Challenge: Pivoting a legacy furniture retailer into a community-first social platform to capture users at the "Inspiration" stage (top-funnel) before they enter the "Shopping" stage.
π The Mission: Map the entire 12-month homeowner journey - from house hunting to renovation - to identify where HipVan could solve "pre-purchase" friction.
π The Win: Reduced Cost Per Install (CPI) from $21 to $8 in 60 days and significantly increased long-term customer Long Term Value (LTV).
π― The Challenge: Launching a new-to-market baby brand in a saturated landscape by competing on values (sustainability) and product innovation (bamboo) rather than just price.
π The Mission: Conceptualise a 360Β° GTM roadmap, from defining the brandβs mission and vision to executing a physical retail launch. The goal was to build a scalable "Brand Playbook" that could maintain consistency as the brand expanded across APAC.
π The Win: Successfully established a lasting market presence in Singapore and scaled the brand into Mothercare stores in Malaysia and Hong Kong. By acting as the brand guardian, I ensured that regional partners adhered to the core strategy and retail concepts, resulting in a cohesive brand identity across all three markets.

Orchestrated the international debut of four childcare brands at the industryβs first major post-pandemic summit in Germany. I facilitated face-to-face GTM strategies for global distributors, translating complex product innovations into localised value propositions for international markets.
Result: Generated high-intent B2B leads and secured new distribution partnerships, successfully expanding the brandβs global footprint.
Identified a critical gap in team documentation regarding the Google Pay growth platform and campaign approval workflows. Within my first 30 days, I took the initiative to deconstruct complex technical mechanics, acronyms, and QA processes into a simplified, step-by-step onboarding deck.
Result: Reduced "time-to-productivity" for new hires by providing a clear operational roadmap. This framework eliminated tribal knowledge, standardised the campaign execution process, and ensured a higher degree of accuracy in QA testing for high-stakes push notifications and banners.
π¬ Write for the person, not the product.
The most common mistake I see in marketing? Teams fall in love with what they're selling and forget who they're selling to. I always start with the audience β their words, their fears, their "finally, someone gets it" moment. If the copy sounds like it came from a boardroom, we're not done yet.
π« Make them feel it before you make them think it.
People don't make decisions rationally and then justify emotionally, it's the other way around. The best campaigns I've been part of earned attention by hitting something true first. Logic closes the deal. Emotion opens the door.
π Complexity is a problem to solve, not a thing to hide.
Whether it's a fintech product, a campaign brief, or a cross-functional stakeholder situation, I'm at my best when I'm translating the complicated into the clear. Not dumbing it down. Just making it human.
π€ Strategy that doesn't survive execution isn't strategy. It's a slide deck.
I care about the whole thing, from the insight that shapes the positioning to the push notification copy that goes live at 9am. The magic (and the mess) is in the details, and I don't hand off and walk away.
