Some of his contributions were in data collection, data analysis and machine mentoring. He was able to follow up on his work with initiative to learn. Overall, he was a good trainee during his internship. SHC Solutions Tan Hock Lim Chief Security Consultant Our intern was humble, sincere, polite and had good technical knowledge.

Throughout his internship, he has demonstrated his capabilities to successfully complete multiple tasks with favourable results despite deadline pressure and work scope beyond his level of studies.
