I currently serve as a Language Lecturer in the Department of Asian and European Languages, Faculty of Languages and Linguistics at Universiti Malaya, specialising in Filipino language and culture, as well as English proficiency in speaking and writing. Alongside this role, I continue to teach in the Department of Southeast Asian Studies, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, where my work bridges language education, intercultural communication, Southeast Asian studies, and regional scholarship. I am currently pursuing a Master in European Studies, with research interests in economic migration, language as soft power, economic regional integration, and security. My academic profile is further strengthened by media writing publications, reflecting my ability to communicate scholarly, cultural, and socio-political ideas to wider public audiences. In addition to my teaching and research background, I bring ten years of professional experience in the Information Technology sector, with emphasis on business analytics, process coordination, data-informed decision-making, and organisational problem-solving. I also have experience managing business relations and special projects at the senior management level. I am currently involved in BINA BERSAMA: Training of Trainers Workshop Planning, a faculty research collaboration on a co-created entrepreneurship programme for refugees. Overall, my profile reflects an interdisciplinary combination of teaching expertise, analytical competence, public-facing scholarship, administrative experience, and community-engaged research.
