Biography

StudentBuilderEssayist

I am an 18-year-old from Selangor, Malaysia. I spent five years at Kolej Yayasan Saad in Melaka — a boarding school that dismantled my assumptions about effort and rebuilt me as a systems thinker. I arrived thinking hard work was enough. I left knowing that direction matters more than force.

My first major project was rebuilding my school's gym — from a broken room to a fully equipped facility that cost RM200,000 and took two years of supplier negotiations, budget management, and institutional diplomacy. The project was covered by The Star. More importantly, the team that used it went on to defeat the national champions — eight months after I retired.

I think in systems, build in code, and reason in markets. I write economics essays focused on Southeast Asia — how payment infrastructure leapfrogs, how EV policy shapes behaviour, how constraints create or destroy opportunity. I am currently designing a VTOL drone (body complete, CFD done on AirShaper) and building FlashShare, an Anki-style flashcard app for Malaysian students.

I am seeking an internship for 2026 in engineering, consulting, or economics research. I want to work on problems that have real stakes, and I want to learn from people who have built things that last.

Journey.

Proposed the gym refurbishment — 57 rejections

Identified that facility quality, not motivation, separated winning teams from losing ones. Drafted the first proposal at 15. Was rejected 57 times before receiving approval from school leadership.

Gym opens. The Rammers advance to the national stage.

The refurbished gym opened after two years of work. Players began training before and after school. The team advanced past group stages — and eight months later, my juniors defeated the reigning champions. I was not there. The system I built was.
