In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

In this issue, I'd like to do something different. All of the highlights are very interesting videos from TED talks about the way we think. The videos are between 15 to 30 minutes, but they are well worth your time I promise. Hope these resources will help create marginal changes in your life every so often. Let's be enlightened together!

Doris, Educator

Michelle always carries herself in a professional manner and possesses the relevant knowledge to answer all of my queries. Moreover, she backs up her advice with statistics and credible sources, so the information that she shares are reliable and accurate. She doesn't dive straight to "selling" me any plans. In fact she put in a lot of effort listening and understanding me. This got me comfortable to seek all sorts of financial advice from her ongoing forward basis.

Krystal, Teacher

To be honest, I was a little hesitant to meet any advisors, thinking it would jump right into sales, as I have encountered bad experience before. However, Michelle makes effort to ensure I was comfortable in each and every session, constantly checking on my well-being. In fact, these small meetings with her have helped me better understand how I wanted to plan and grow my finances for the future. I did not feel pressured at all to make a decision on the spot, and one could tell that she really enjoys and values the work that she does and cares a lot for her clients - it's really admirable !

Dave, Finance Analyst

What sets Michelle apart is her personalized approach. She didn't just offer cookie-cutter solutions. Instead, she crafted a tailored financial plan that aligned perfectly with my aspirations and priorities. Whether it was optimizing my investment portfolio or planning for retirement, Michelle was there every step of the way, providing guidance and support.

Weng Chee, Supply Chain

Michelle is a very smart and energetic lady who is very proficient in terms of investments, savings and insurance. She is very amicable and is very flexible to accommodate meetings to client’s needs. She did a great job at explaining complicated concepts in simple and relatable terms. In addition to being skilled in what she is doing, she is also really friendly and approachable too - it wasn't awkward talking to her at all ! I would highly recommend you to approach Michelle if you need any financial advice and guidance :)

Pradap, Beautician

Michelle took time to understand my unique goals, concerns, and priorities. Her clear explanations and patient guidance have helped me navigate complex financial decisions with confidence. She takes time off to catch up with me over lunch on life and wellbeing. This is very heart warming, as a lot of agents out there are those "hit & run" type. Thank you for being my financial consultant, I love you !

Glenn, Business Development

Keeping it real and down to earth for clients’ wellbeing and always looking out for them both short term and long term 💪🏻💪🏻 The first impression & vibes she has given me when we first met was very comfortable & warming. I never felt more relieved knowing my financial standings and she will make me feels more confident on embarking my next financial move !! Thank you for being my advisor, feels good to have a safety net I can always ask and rely on 🙏🏼🙏🏼
