My favourite moment was probably going to Washington to be a part of IAC 2019. It really put into perspective how Singapore fits into the greater space ecosystem.

What is your favourite moment at SSTL so far?
My favourite moment was probably going to Washington to be a part of IAC 2019. It was a busy and stressful trip but at the end, I was grateful to have met with so many experts from the field and shared about SSTL. It really put into perspective how Singapore fits into the greater space ecosystem.
How has your experience been working from home?
It was strange at the start and took time to get used to. With everyone in my household at home, it was difficult to find a quiet space where I could focus. I also felt like I never really shut down from work as it’s easy to switch on the computer and send out an email. However, I really appreciate the extra time spent with my family!
What are you looking forward to when we head back to the office?
Going to lunch with everyone! We could never really decide on what to have for lunch but now, I wouldn’t even mind if we had fish soup the entire week. It’ll be nice just to see the team again.
