As an Information Systems undergraduate, Clare’s wide array of experiences in external hackathons and competitions has landed her key internships in Synapxe and PRISM+ - both which will be essential in her path towards product management upon graduation. Initially starting off as a Curriculum Executive in our first semester, her responsibility in our second semester as Deputy Head of Curriculum involved leading a team of five to ensure the smooth operations and execution of PME: Exposure to Product Management. Her implementation of PME includes initiating a Teaching Assistant system to support our participating groups - which has greatly improved the quality of our flagship programme.
Having established her presence and efforts in our club, Clare's new role as President moving forward includes overseeing all operations and events in our club, ensuring its continued growth within our school community. Clare is also presently working as a Product Management Intern at Rakuten Viki, having recently completed her summer internship as a Data Analyst at Singlife.
