I let go of my dream of becoming a pilot eons ago - thanks to my nose playing host to the heaviest of spectacles since the age of 3.

However, I’m glad I clung on to my inner-child.

He’s the reason I look at the world from a unique perspective.

Is the driving force behind me still buying Hot Wheels, the latest action figures and several comic book subscriptions.

And if we’re talking perspectives, is the mastermind behind me joining an industry where he can thrive every day of the week.

Thanks to some fabulous mentors, he has.

By writing copy for some interesting brands in India and Singapore - for 8 fruitful years and counting - and winning a few prestigious advertising awards along the way.

When I’m not cracking ideas (or my back), I’m either queuing up at McDonalds, voraciously reading Superman issue after Superman issue or binging Miami Vice or Knight Rider (Yep, I’m a 90s baby with the soul of an 80s one).

If you’re eager to talk advertising or see whether this 20-something child has aged well, I’m always up for a coffee or two.
