Coaching & Mentoring

Having navigated my own career path, I understand the challenges and opportunities that come with building expertise in this dynamic field. I actively coach on key career development topics, including:

For me, coaching is not just about giving advice—it is about fostering confidence, encouraging critical thinking, and helping individuals unlock their full potential.

Whether you are just starting your supply chain career or looking to take the next step, I would be happy to help you with personalized guidance. I offer 1-on-1 intro calls and deep-dive coaching sessions through Topmate where you can connect with me.

Reading

For me, reading is more than just acquiring information—it is about connecting ideas, challenging assumptions, and continuously evolving. Each book adds to my curiosity and fuels my desire to explore the world with a deeper understanding. My reading journey is rooted in non-fiction, where every book serves as a gateway to learning, discovery, and personal growth.

2025 Reading List

Watches & Wine

These two passions, though seemingly different, share a common thread—heritage, precision, and the ability to tell a story through time and taste. I admire the intricate craftsmanship of timepieces, from classic dress watches to vintage chronographs, each watch represents more than just timekeeping; it is a statement of style, engineering, and tradition.

Likewise, my love for wine goes beyond tasting—I enjoy exploring varietals, winemaking techniques, and understanding the influence of regions and terroir. From the bold reds of Spain’s Rioja to the crisp whites of Italy’s vineyards, every bottle has a story to tell. Currently, I am pursuing the WSET wine courses to deepen my expertise in wine production and global regions.

For me, watches and wine symbolize an appreciation for the finer things in life, where patience, craftsmanship, and history come together in a perfect blend.

Exploring World Cuisines

I have a passion for discovering diverse flavors, whether through travel, cooking, or learning about culinary traditions. My journeys to Singapore, Spain, Mexico, Hungary, and other places have given me the opportunity to taste and appreciate authentic dishes that reflect each country’s culture.

Spain, with its rich culinary heritage, has fueled my love for Spanish cuisine—whether it is indulging in a perfectly cooked paella, savoring the bold flavors of tapas, or enjoying a slice of Jamón Ibérico. In Mexico, I was captivated by the vibrant street food scene, from tacos al pastor to fresh ceviche bursting with citrusy zest. Singapore offered a fusion of flavors, where dishes like chili crab and Hainanese chicken rice showcased the country’s multicultural influences.

For me, food is more than just sustenance—it is a way to connect with cultures, traditions, and people. and I am always eager to explore new flavors, techniques and uncover the stories behind them.
