I am Jeraldine Phneah 彭嘉琳
I write for working professionals in Singapore, sharing ideas for personal growth and reflections on the future.
Hello, I’m Jeraldine Phneah, a Singaporean working in the AI sector. Like many in our generation, I’ve felt the weight of job instability, rising costs, rapid technological shifts, and the struggle to balance work and life. These challenges are real — and I’ve lived them too.
To support others on this journey, I share practical insights for navigating working life in Singapore, and reflections on the future.
Along the way, I have been featured on platforms such as Channel News Asia, Her World and Dollars & Sense.
The views and opinions expressed here are my own and do not reflect the official policy or position of any organization I am affiliated with.
Helping young professionals secure good jobs
I create content to help young working adults build rewarding careers with actionable tips including optimizing LinkedIn profiles and increasing their salaries.
In my Her World interview, I share the challenges I faced starting out and how they motivated me to give back.
The Rising Cost of Living and the Role of Financial Literacy
Singapore has become one of the most expensive places to live in and many working professionals are feeling the squeeze.
Financial literacy is not a silver bullet, but it can make a real difference. It gives us the tools to plan ahead and manage uncertainty.
In this interview with CNA, I breakdown what inflation means for Singaporeans and how I manage my monthly budget.
Supporting students from lower-income families
During the tech recession, I was laid off. This experience that taught me resilience and gave me time to focus on impact.
I used the time to create a LinkedIn campaign for =DREAMS, a boarding home that provides a stable environment and mentorship for lower-income students in Singapore.
