Sport Management undergraduate at Universiti Malaya co-founding an AI-enabled e-commerce venture and advising university applicants.
MalaysiaWhat I'm looking for
At NexGen Ventures, I’m co-founding an early-stage venture focused on AI-powered e-commerce enablement, TikTok Shop and creator commerce, and business automation for SMEs across Southeast Asia. The work has given me firsthand exposure to shaping a business idea, defining its market focus, and navigating early operations.
At Unibex, I advise prospective applicants as an independent, commission-based recruitment agent for 20 partner universities in Malaysia. I researched programme and scholarship options and international student regulations across five Malaysian universities, and developed outreach through school counsellors, community networks, and Arabic-language corridors.
Alongside my studies in Sport Management at Universiti Malaya, I coach football at Little League Academy and independently. I’ve also supported event operations at the Maybank Challenge Cup and handled finances and vendor relations for student and sports events.
