I was a full-time piano teacher of 14 years before making a bold career switch to join Prudential. My journey with Prudential has thoroughly engaged my capacity for lifelong learning, which is deeply meaningful to me.

Formerly an IT specialist, it was definitely not as easy decision to make a mid-career switch. However, I decided to take a leap of faith. And now, 7 years have passed and the deep trust built between my clients and me is something that I am eternally grateful for.

After graduating from NUS in July 2021 with a degree in Economics, I was given the opportunity by Mr Guek and a fellow rookie Joel to join them in their financial journeys. It’s only been 1.5 years since I’ve entered the industry but it’s been a very fulfilling 1.5 years.

I took the leap of faith after graduating in December 2020 and have been a financial consultant for the past 1.5 years. I’m glad to say that I’ve definitely found fulfilment in the purpose of this business as I focus on helping clients around my age to get on the path and find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

After graduating with a degree in Psychology, I did not expect myself to enter the financial industry. However, after getting my financial qualifications, I got the opportunity to work with people from all walks of life – with different life stories and needs. Everyday was fulfilling and interesting, and it’s definitely something I can see myself doing for a long time.

I made a bold career switch to leave my comfort zone and join Prudential as a financial Consultant. Now I wake up every morning and look forward to every encounter, eager to make a difference for the better. When I’m not thinking about work, I still enjoy spending time with my books, or going for long walks with my adorable furry canine companion.

The process has been immensely rewarding since I joined 16 years ago. Not only has this career provided me with a good income, balance in family life and continual growth; the greatest reward comes from the gratification knowing that I’ve been of help and service to my clients. I’ve been put in many situations where clients sought urgent help or confided in me, and that relief I see on their faces and hear in their voices when they know their claims are successful, that they are well protected in a crisis or that their retirement future is well-secured, is something I reflect on regularly and keeps me going when times are trying.
