I am hugely passionate about sustainability, circular economy, and social impact businesses. I am deeply committed to the idea that businesses have a responsibility to address the pressing social and environmental challenges facing our world today. This involves creating innovative, impactful solutions that promote sustainability, encourage a circular economy, and generate positive social change.
On a more lighthearted note; I’m also a die-hard official member of Liverpool FC global & Malaysia supporters club; so, I spend a lot of time watching the games, analysing, playing fantasy football & networking with fellow supporters. To that effect, my current role model is none other than Jurgen Klopp, the “Normal One” and I aspire to be like him because he’s just full of energy, charisma and possesses all the humble leadership qualities that creates a winning, never give up mentality towards all the teams he manages.
