Welcome to my digital home!
I'm a technologist by trade, but an artist at heart.
This is where I collect the things i've seen, made, and learnt.

About

Hey there, I'm Marcus.

I'm a curious human who codes, creates, and feels a little too deeply sometimes.

I've worn many hats—engineer, cofounder, designer, presenter—and I've been lucky enough to work on projects that span startups, governments, and everything in between. I love taking messy, complex ideas and shaping them into something more tangible and structured.

I've lived in 🇸🇬 Singapore, 🇺🇸 San Francisco, 🇭🇰 Hong Kong, and 🇨🇳 Hangzhou. Each place taught me something new—about people, about systems, about myself.

These days, I'm trying to live a little more intentionally. That means more time creating things, more time with friends and family, and more time for myself.

I care deeply about personal health, education, and the long, messy journey of self-development. Not everything needs to change the world — sometimes it's enough to just change yourself, or be there for someone else who's trying to do the same.

This site is where I collect those little sparks—things I've made, learned, loved, and am still figuring out. Thanks for stopping by !!
