Personal Background

Born and raised in Singapore, Kexin’s career across both local and international banks has given her a deep appreciation for diverse cultures and perspectives — enabling her to connect meaningfully with people from all walks of life.

Outside of work, she is continuously navigating how she can show up more meaningfully for her loved ones — as a daughter, sister, friend, and proud pawrent. An ISFP and extrovert turned ambivert, she enjoys listening to stories and experiences, exploring human behaviour, and understanding what shapes how people think and feel. She finds joy in creating memories — whether through quality time with those she loves or exploring new corners of the world. She believes time is our most precious commodity and chooses to invest it intentionally, with those who uplift, energise, and inspire growth.

To her, happiness is found in the small, everyday moments, and lasting transformation is nurtured through consistent and intentional actions over time.
