“Be like water my friend”, said Bruce Lee. Charles says so too as he takes to the waters with his kayak when he is not navigating the currents in fast-moving technology tides. With more than 20 years’ experience in R&D and mid-scale application development at Creative Technology Ltd, the first Singapore technology company listed on NASDAQ, Charles’ life philosophy of flowing like water is as valuable as his immense know-how of software development and nimble approach towards collaborating with developers and vendors.
Charles kayaked round the Singapore island to challenge himself and rediscover our little red dot during a sabbatical break from his career. Prior to joining Activate, he started a boutique firm and took on development projects for clients including Wearnes and the Building and Construction Authority of Singapore.
