Kay-Lene Tan is a renowned pastry chef celebrated for her innovative desserts that combine storytelling with bold flavours. Before embarking on her culinary career, she worked as a documentary maker, with a background in mass communication from Ngee Ann Polytechnic in Singapore. A turning point came during a “quarter-life crisis,” which led her to pivot toward her passion for food, eventually enrolling at At-Sunrice GlobalChef Academy to pursue pastry and bakery arts. Her talent took her to some of the world's best kitchens and earned her accolades, including being a semi-finalist on MasterChef Australia: Dessert Masters in 2023. On the show, she impressed with desserts inspired by her heritage and personal memories, such as her "Milo Dinosaur" dish and a "New Beginning" creation symbolising seasonal change. While she didn't take home the title, Kay-Lene described her experience on Dessert Masters as transformative, reigniting her confidence and reaffirming her unique culinary voice. Kay-Lene is now using that voice at Omnia Bistro and Yugen Dining in South Yarra. Kay-Lene is articulate and realistic and glorious in the way she describes dessert creation but also her own journey, and she also has the best laugh. I learned a lot from our conversation and came away the better for having spoken to her.

Filmmaker Boo Junfeng shares the challenges he faced as director of NDP 2021 (Singapore's National Day Parade) during a pandemic, yet ultimately how he created a celebration that resonated at home, on screens, inspiring all of Singapore. Drawn to film in secondary school, mesmerized by the make-believe of Oscar films, he was encouraged by his parents to take a “well-trodden path”. Junfeng though, “not a motivated student”, did not do well academically, until he found his way to Ngee Ann Polytechnic, where “it was the first time I ever topped my class”. He celebrates the availability of more pathways to express creativity now, and explores how his passion for filmmaking lies in his interest to understand people, their psyche, and the human condition – all evident in his debut film, “Sandcastle” and follow-up “Apprentice”. Wanting to humanize topics and stories, wondering if people will find value in his work, explaining why Singapore filmmakers find “a cocoon in the art house circuit”, and why Passing the Power on PinkDot and LGBTQ is important to him: “For many people, it's just an issue. For me, it's an identity. It is who I am.” As his thoughtful sharing makes us all consider our stories, the ones we tell ourselves and others, he closes with passion, purpose, and peace, “Taking the time to listen tends to be a better use of my time,” says Junfeng, aptly Passing the Power on to you.

Jeremy Oliveiro (Jerry) was deeply affected when a youth he was helping decided to take their own life. It is one of the reasons that drives him today to speak up the topic of suicide and prevention, as taboo as it may be. Jerry diverse experiences and expertise across different vocations, as an educator, psychologist, counsellor and youth-worker. He has a masters in counselling and is currently working as a psychology lecturer in Ngee Ann Polytechnic, and a volunteer defense psychologist with MINDEF. He is the current Membership Chair of the Singapore Psychological Society (SPS), Director (Membership and Strategic Engagements) with SG Psych Stuff, and an international member of the American Psychological Association (APA).

STREET INTERVIEWS TIME BABY! So we were at Ngee Ann Polytechnic again! Asking the youths if they had been to the zoo recently and if they enjoyed it but the last question was whether they think it was ethical to have these wild animals in cages instead of being in the wild! Lets see what the youths have to say about this. Do tune in and let us know your thoughts as well! Also DM us if you want us to go to your school or institution to have street interviews! NUS and street interviews on sexual harassment maybe?
