How do you handle the critics?

I’m not bothered by keyboard warriors. I vividly remember during my audition for “The Voice of China”, many criticized the singing talents in Singapore.

What people said didn’t affect me because I am my own worst critic. I believed I let myself down and did not perform well then. They didn’t have to tell me I was bad; I already knew it!

What apps do you like to use?

Besides the usual photo editing and social media apps, I use the Keyboard app for when I have inspiration on-the-go and need to pen down some tunes.

What’s something you’re secretly good at? What’s something you’re really bad at?

I’m really bad at cooking! I can do basic stuff but I’m definitely not a good cook. I’m really good at wakeboarding. It’s really random but the first time I got on the wakeboard, I got the hang of it. That was a pleasant surprise.
