I’m Eexin, a Malaysian based in Kuala Lumpur and (currently in) Hong Kong.

I have spent the past ten years leading strategy, product and operations teams in pre-series A startups (digital mental health) and in large tech companies (Grab). I love solving problems and doing things hands-on, and am constantly looking out for interesting projects to work on.

Outside of work, I enjoy rock-climbing, reading and writing. I also love a good play. I am curious about a wide array of topics – writings here are attempts to develop some of these thoughts or ideas and to crystallise experiences which are important to me.

Some other formative experiences:

• Career break: I spent six months traipsing around USA and parts of Europe revisiting old friends, climbing and diving
• Grab: I built a team of high-performers, and had the privilege of working with them on a lot of fun projects for five years
• Bain: The three years I spent in Bain fresh out of college are foundational to where I am today
• University of Chicago: I learned to see business problems are constrained optimisation problems
• Southeast Asia, USA, South Africa, Hong Kong: All places I have spent a significant amount of time in, and have fond memories of
