We are TIPping THE SCALES TOWARD A BETTER FUTURE

Most people wouldn’t expect military rigor and relationship-driven creativity to go together. But for us, it makes perfect sense.

My career led me from serving as an officer in the Singapore army to design school, a combination of experiences that showed me how a system for everything actually frees up your creative mind.

While studying at Rhode Island School of Design, I saw how design could be applied beyond aesthetics and become a tool to make the world better. This led to co-founding the Better World by Design conference, becoming a TED Fellow, and building high-performing teams and cultures in NYC and Silicon Valley. Along the way, I collaborated with incredible entrepreneurs with world-changing ideas.

But great ideas by themselves are not enough. You can have a revolutionary innovation, but it doesn’t matter if nobody knows about it. That’s where Giant Shoulders comes in.

We are building a rallying point for positive change, where mission-driven visionaries and like-minded collaborators work together. We combine proven systems and design thinking to take your innovations to the world, laying the foundation for sustainable businesses and empowering the next generation of leaders to create a better future for everyone.
