My name is Chia Yi Sheen, and I am a full-time NSman at SCDF.In my 3rd year of study at Ngee Ann Polytechnic, I was given the opportunity to do my internship at iHealthTech at NUS's Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine. Over there, I had a bountiful learning experience as honed my skills in cell culture and Western Blotting. I also picked up soft skills like time management and communication. My colleagues and supervisor played an instrumental role in this enriching journey with their patient guidance. Previously, I was a student at Kranji Secondary School and was a cadet in the National Police Cadet Corps (NPCC) while I was studying there. NPCC taught me plenty about what it takes to be a leader and I learned valuable lessons on how to effectively communicate with my fellow cadets.I remain open-minded about my future career paths. I believe that opportunities arise at every step of my life journey. I think that by being receptive to every opportunity that is presented to me, coupled with the hunger for excellence, I will find the right career choice for me.
