About me

Gender Female
Location Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Introduction Dodol is a toffee-like Malaysian confection. Mochi is a sweet glutinous-rice snack commonly found throughout East Asia. And together they speak for who I am: a Malaysian-Chinese, a multilingual vocalizer, who discovered her love of baking, cooking, writing, and food photography during the last two years of her undergraduate education. And I take great pride in being who I am. On May 24, 2009, I gave birth to Dodol & Mochi — a canvas on which I’ve been painting thereafter, to express myself through my love of food and language, and through life and all things visual.
