After graduating from the Singapore-Cambridge ‘A’ Levels with full distinctions, Kimberly studied for a BBA at the Nanyang Business School, where she was awarded its most prestigious undergraduate scholarship and offered a place at its selective University Scholar’s Program – which she gave up to pursue a BSc in International Hospitality Management at the EHL Lausanne. Kimberly has since lived and worked in hospitality across 5 countries – Czech Republic, Japan, Singapore, Switzerland, and USA. She has had various experiences in hotel real estate and operations, working for brands/companies including Cushman & Wakefield, Hyatt Place, The Ritz Carlton, and The St. Regis.
