Fun fact!
I like long commutes by bus or train because then I can imagine random dance steps or mini choreos to whatever I'm listening to!
Tell us about your role in #TeamLB!
I eat, breathe and play with words everyday!
What about your job do you find invigorating?
I like that I'm always creating something in my day to day - whether it's a headline for a campaign, newsletter copies or UX copy for our website. It's the process of creating something from start to finish that sparks a light in me, keeping me going for the rest of the day. I always say this, "When I create, I come alive".

What do you find energy-sapping?
Back-to-back meetings so there's little energy left for ideating and writing. But that's where a little bit of music, munchies and dance can do the trick to refuel my energy tank and get me going for the rest of the day.
What's your favourite way to unwind in the midst of your busy schedule?
Dancing to my favourite tunes, whichever Spotify playlist calls out to me in the moment!

Fun fact!
I love WFH days 'cus I can go braless. But LB's making it possible too when normalcy kicks back with the padded outfits!
Tell us about your role in #TeamLB!
I make friends with media and partners and make sure our LB spokespeople deliver clear and concise messages each time, every time. Gist of my life.
What about your job do you find invigorating?
Meeting people, and more so meeting new people!

What's your favourite way to unwind in the midst of your busy schedule?
I love making coffee using the Nespresso machine! It's like a small accomplishment and to be able to give myself a pat on the back before heading back to work.
What's one Loungewear piece that accompanies you through your work day?
I love the Janie Seamless Ribbed Knit Camisole. Super soft and comfy. I usually pair it with my denim shorts to send the kid to school and then back at work.
If there's an important or external meeting over Zoom I just throw a blazer over. If I'm meeting friends in town for a drink, I just put on a pair of jeans.
Simple, fuss-free, comfy.

Fun fact!
I'm attempting to make Jun Tea (it's the champagne of Kombucha, go look it up!) but I'm failing terribly trying to make my Jun scoby from scratch :'(
I'll try again until I succeed, so wish me luck!

The Brand Campaigns team does all the storytelling and builds fun experiences in LB! From planning brand awareness campaigns, to designing LBCommunity+ swag, and sharing community stories!
What do you find energy-sapping?
When we go into too many calls and I end up not having time for my team members!

What's your favourite way to unwind in the midst of your busy schedule?
I like a mid-day snack - 4pm is crunch (heh) time, when my eyes start to wander and my tummy starts craving for something salty.
Back when we were all working in office, 4pm was the time we'd whip out chips and gummy bears (and occasionally some healthy snacks, we try!) and take a break as a team before we get back to work.
I also like feeding people, so I tempt them with what I'm eating so we all crunch together. At home, I tend to sit through the whole afternoon without moving, so now I take breaks by pacing a little or doing a long deep stretch!
What's one Loungewear piece that accompanies you through your work day?
I'm usually in a plain top with jeans or pants from LB so the kimono does the trick, soft on skin and adds that pop of colour. Comfort is key for me! I usually dress down by changing out my bottoms with a matching short!
