About Me
I am Fang Qing Ya, turning 20 this year (2024). I recently graduated from Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a diploma in Biomedical Engineering. As much as I like the course I took in Ngee Ann, I have decided to take a gap year for the rest of 2024 to explore other industries in Singapore. I am currently open to design and marketing jobs due to my interest in art and communications. Though I lack a background in the field, I am curious and always willing to learn. Hopefully, through the multiple internships this year, I can discover my true potential and direction in life.
