About

Hi! Thank you for visiting my site. I'm Caren. :)

A while ago, I left Microsoft as a Tech Lead and a corporate life to redesign my life. To this day, I have never felt so alive, despite of being in my 40s. Since then, I've worked on my own company Yanchen Consulting, helped manufacturing companies to achieve industry 4.0 with AI, expand my real estate portfolio and built my own projects along the way... scroll down to see them all.

Though it's been a long-standing idea, I've finally begun to write about my passions - personal finance, women & investment, personal growth, and technology - on my blog.

I am also writing a book, Doing Money Right, you can pre order here.

Speaking of learning to invest, I began my journey 15 years ago with my first rental property, financed by my first full time employee salary, and have since built a portfolio of assets. Learning to invest was the second-best decision I've made.

My latest project is a photography project titled "Going Home," where I documented the lives of three generations: my grandmother, my mother, and myself.

Along the way, I’ve been lucky to explore 102 countries and have captured some of my life here. My favourite places include Lisbon, Tokyo, São Tome and Malaysia You can learn more about me, how I give back, or how I learn here.
