Hello, I’m Khairul
I am mostly a writer. I say ‘mostly’ because no accreditation bodies has actually certifies me as one, so who am I to wear that title. I guess I am someone who writes. Or more accurately, I am someone who talks a lot. So this site here will be a space where I shall continue talking, hopefully in a more structured and coherent manner.
My background is in tech, advertising, and education, among others. I have never stayed in one industry or sector for too long to claim any specializations, but jumping from one to the other does make for many interesting insights and experiences.
Just in case I am going into that loop of perfectionism again when writing, I shall remind myself that my main audience is my lovely wife, with whom I am at my most authentic self.
