After graduating from Western Michigan University, I was given the opportunity to serve in various industries. I started my career as Personnel Assistant in the hotel industry in 1998. Then, I pursued a similar career as Human Resources Executive in the manufacturing and insurance industries in 2000 and 2001, respectively. I ended my career in human resources after leaving the insurance industry in 2003 and continued my studies in Diploma in Education (TESL) (KPLI/KPM) at the International Languages Teacher Training Institute (IPBA) in 2004. I began my career in teaching in 2005 at two government polytechnics in Kota Kinabalu and Port Dickson prior to my transfer to Universiti Malaya as Language Teacher DG41 in 2007. Presently, I hold the post as Language Teacher DG48 in the English Language Department, Faculty of Languages & Linguistics, Universiti Malaya.
