Board Member · CCO · Serial Starter of Things
Dubai-based. Operating across Singapore, the UAE, and Southeast Asia. If you need me, I'm probably in a meeting about a meeting.
About
Walked into Mechanical Engineering at TU Mandalay. Walked right back out. Now I sit on the Board at I4B Solutions and serve as CCO, where I help Ministries, NGOs, and INGOs modernize their departments — which mostly means convincing rooms full of important people that "we've always done it this way" is not a strategy.
Based in Dubai, operating across Singapore, the UAE, and Southeast Asia. Co-founded a STEAM school, launched a non-profit for Myanmar's tech development, and started a food brand — because starting things is my personality at this point.
Experience
Expertise
Multi-currency headaches, payment systems, budgeting, and treasury ops across multiple jurisdictions. The boring stuff that keeps the lights on.
Running things across Singapore, the UAE, and Southeast Asia. Navigating regulatory, legal, and cultural complexity — or as I call it, Tuesday.
Thinking five years ahead while everyone else is still arguing about this quarter. Emerging markets, policy environments, and where to put the money.
Teaching government officials that having 47 browser tabs open is not a workflow. Digital literacy programmes for legislators, NGOs, and civil society across Myanmar.
Policy drafting, SOPs, and compliance frameworks. The kind of work where getting it wrong means headlines, and getting it right means nobody notices.
Investors, government counterparts, institutional partners — I talk to all of them. Across Southeast Asia and the broader Indo-Pacific, usually over too much coffee.
Ventures
The mothership. A multi-jurisdictional holding company spanning Singapore, the UAE, and Southeast Asia. Finance, trade, services — and a lot of cross-border coordination that keeps me on planes.
Mandalay's first international STEAM school. The city deserved one and I apparently deserved less sleep. Co-founded and ran operations.
A non-profit for Myanmar's tech development, because someone had to bridge the digital divide and I was already in too many meetings to say no.
Authentic Anyar (Central Burma) Foods. Small-batch, homemade, and made the way it's supposed to be. Proof that not everything I do involves a boardroom.
