Jessica is a mum of a feisty preschool toddler and two goofy floofy cats. She has over a decade of experience in the publishing industry–both in Singapore where she’s lived for the past 8 years, and back in Malaysia where she has spent most of her life. Work aside, she spends her days taking her daughter to see wild chickens in the park, and her nights telling herself “okay, just one last mission” on her PS5 console. She also sometimes sneaks away for a good concert or two, and is (unsuccessfully) trying to influence her daughter to appreciate rock music in favour of baby shark.
Michell is originally from Hong Kong and has spent the past two decades living in the US, Europe & China. She is now calling Singapore home.
Digital strategist by trade, artist by heart. Michell is passionate about producing video stories and is also the founder of Blub Creative, a consultancy that promotes positive social impact.
Born in Singapore but raised in Jakarta, Serene came back to Singapore after a 10-year stint in Amsterdam and Geneva. Serene has a Mass Communication and Hospitality background. The ex-SQ girl misses her travelling days sometimes, however she is happily grounded now busying herself with work and her 3 kids. A hippie at heart, (when not working) Serene paints, plays her guitar, cooks, swims or goofs around dancing with her kids Milena, Julian and Karlijn.
From paw-parents to now a human parent of 1, Sharon’s life has been turned into a whirlwind with bottles, diapers and Coco-melon. Her past life of an advertising executive crafting stories is now traded with bedtime stories. When she is not parenting, Sharon is chilling ~ with a book, soaking in k-drama, taking a stroll with her dogs. All with a chatty girl in the background with her ‘Why’s’.
An Ex -Singapore Girl, who got grounded in corporate after starting a family. Missing the shopping and dining but nothing beats spending time with her 2 kids, Lukas and Kiara. Getting back into shape with yoga and long brisk walks with a much needed drink at the end of a long day!
Just before #adulting, our Content Manager Yvonne took a gap year in Seoul. She then came back to the start of her public relations and project management stint overlooking all things creative. Nine years in, she’s now a new mama to her little boy who’s especially thrilled listening to her latest baby jams. When she’s not busy checking things off her multiple lists (projects, baby things, shopping..), she loves putting her records on, making sure her terrarium is alive and getting cosy with a cup of hot chocolate and rom-com novels.
Having lived in eight countries since she was two, Cherilyn considers herself a citizen of the world. She’s a Singaporean but has only lived here for 3 years of her childhood. She writes during the day and likes to unwind in the evening with a good workout, Netflix, and some quality time with her husband, all the while trying to keep up with her two active little ones. She’s never lived in a city for more than four years but is hoping that she can call Singapore home for a while.
Aisyah is a self-proclaimed cat-whisperer who dedicates 10 minutes of her daily commute to say hello to her neighbourhood cats. When not spending time with her felines, she spends her time sourcing the next best food to eat. But don’t worry, she’s not the “take a photo before eating” type. She’s the “take a bite before it’s cool” kind. Aisyah is now excitedly counting down to starting her parenting journey in a few months!
Megan traded the rainy streets of the UK for the bustling cityscape of Hong Kong to launch her Marketing career. Having worked in Fashion, Innovation, and Luxury Goods, she’s a self-proclaimed “jack of all trades.” After a whirlwind move during the pandemic, she’s now found her home in Singapore, where’s she navigating becoming a brand new mama.
An Indonesian Chinese raised in Singapore, Kiki dedicated over 15 years to organizing glamorous Fashion Week, Runway and Trade Shows across Singapore, New York, Paris, and China. Her life took a delightful turn with the arrival of her little girl 7 years ago.
Her days now are filled with the joyful chaos of parenthood, exploring new playgrounds and kids’ activities to keep her extroverted daughter entertained.
She also enjoys exploring new cities with her family and swooning over Korean Oppas during her me-time.
Mahalakshmi is an accounting and finance professional with a passion for numbers and a love for life beyond the spreadsheet. When she’s not crunching numbers, you can find her spending quality time with her two energetic boys, watching them grow and learn new things every day. She’s a devoted mom who cherishes every moment with her little ones, from playing catch to reading bedtime stories.
In the kitchen, she transforms into a culinary enthusiast, whipping up delicious meals for her family and friends.
A self-proclaimed Potterhead, she’s a fan of the wizarding world and often finds herself escaping into the magical realms of Hogwarts. With a dash of magic and a pinch of creativity, she strives to make her work and personal life a reflection of her values: love, learning, and laughter.
