Alan began his journey as a financial expert from being an auditor in Deloitte & Touche LLP some ten years ago but quickly realised his calling to use his financial knowledge to help people on a personal basis. Now with almost a decade’s worth of financial advisory practice to his name, Alan is in the top 3% by the Court of the Table defined through the Million Dollar Round Table Organization and also won the Chairman Round Table Award, the most prestigious internal company award by IPPFA.

Alan’s biggest source of happiness and motivation comes from his wife, and two-year-old daughter. He firmly believes that our time on earth is just a tiny fraction compared to the existence of the universe and we should live the best of it by helping ourselves and others. In his free time, Alan indulges in art collectables, and reads biographies of some of the greatest minds in the world, from Lee Kuan Yew to Steve Jobs.
