​

Hi! I'm a Malaysian writer interested in small places, good stories, and writing across genres. For about 30 years, I worked as a mall manager, project manager, and chemical engineer while writing fiction. I have since given up the nine-to-five, and I'm now enjoying the space to read, write, and see. I live in Kuala Lumpur with my family.
