  • Staffany
    Account Executive
    Staffany Aug 2019 - Aug 2020
    Singapore, Singapore, Sg
    StaffAny is a scheduling, timesheet and attendance tool for local businesses. I decided to drop my honours in University to join them as the 2nd sales hire.At StaffAny, I led end-to-end sales - building the outbound sales playbook for Singapore, and into Malaysia and Indonesia; where I closed the first deals in Indo and Malaysia. Racking in 6 digits in ARR for the company and led pivot efforts into manufacturing, logistics and delivery as the global pandemic loomed in and affected our home industry — the F&Bs. This jam-packed experience exposed me to key gaps within the industry and with these insights, decided to start my own adventure!
  • Workstream
    Business Development, Inside Sales
    Workstream Jul 2018 - Aug 2019
    San Francisco, California, Us
    Workstream is an end to end hiring software for hourly workers. We work with local businesses to help them hire faster, and smarter — sourcing, screening and on-boarding new employees in days! I was the first sales hire at Workstream and built the initial outbound playbook with our CEO. Then used that playbook to close 6-figures of ARR for the company. Also led expansion efforts into new verticals into like hotels, delivery, cinemas and into new states like New Orleans, Portland, Texas and LA via inside sales. One word to wrap up my year with Workstream would be: eye-opening :)

    Taking the weekends to teach kids aged 11-16 the basics of basketball :) Mashing in light conditioning drills for a good sweat, to get stronger, and to start the weekends right! This is something I do on the side with my childhood buddy every weekend; as we hope to keep kids active, healthy and enjoy the merits basketball brings- health, competitiveness, determination, teamwork.

  • Singapore Armed Forces (Saf)
    Commando Instructor
    Singapore Armed Forces (Saf) Dec 2015 - Jun 2016
    Singapore, Sg
    I trained the incoming batch of commandos, as they complete their Basic Military Training (BMT) and the Commando Small Unit Leaders Course (CSLC). Our team of Trainers ensured that our trainees train effectively, and safely transit from civilian life to trained soldiers. We did so by carefully planning intense, yet safe training. We learned to identify trainees’ threshold so that we know when to push harder and when to hold them back from overexertionOverall, I learned- professionalism. To always uphold the right values, preach what we teach and always, lead by example.

I focused on building a conducive environment for my teammates to empathise and learn from one another, so that we can work efficiently as a team, under pressure.We were a determined bunch and were always put out of our comfort zones- I completed the notorious Commando Small Unit Leaders Course (CSLC), completed 6 combat military parachute descend, marched 72 KM to earn the coveted red beret and as a team, we eventually attained the 2015 SAF Best Combat Unit award.
