Independent Board Advisor at Ferns Capital
Singapore, Singapore
About
These days Edwin divides his time between advisory work, family, and volunteer mentoring for first-generation university students. He enjoys reading about history, collecting fountain pens, and planning detailed but relaxed travel itineraries with his wife.
Career Journey
Edwin built a career in banking, moved through corporate strategy roles across Southeast Asia, and now advises growth-stage companies on governance and expansion. Former colleagues describe him as composed under pressure and unusually generous with young managers trying to find their footing.
School Memories
He vividly remembers school choirs, sports day heat, and the small rituals of classroom life that made each year distinct. The teachers who expected discipline also encouraged polish, and that combination stayed with him long after school ended.
