Biography
Having enjoyed the first 19 years of my life in warm, humid, tropical Malaysia, I flew over to Canada where I spent the next 4 years in the cold but crudely romantic Montreal, completing my B. Sc. (Env. Biology) in McGill University. The East Coast winter was beautiful, but I missed the warmth (and the inconvenience of a snow jacket was too much to bear) and so I hopped over to California, where I completed my Ph.D. (Entomology) in the University of California-Davis, studying cannibalism behaviour in bigeyed bugs (Geocoris). Although Davis was the closest thing to a 2nd home I’ve ever had, delicious, pungent durians were impossible to find and so, I returned to Malaysia after 8 years in North America. For the next three years, I taught and researched insect behavioural ecology in Universiti Putra Malaysia where the interactions with students are plentiful and rewarding. So were the durians there. Since Feb 2014, I left the academia and switched gears into scientific communication through various print and online media as well as BFM89.9, the business station in Malaysia.
