Can see her dad's features in her. He and his wife must have encouraged her to venture overseas and strike out on her own.
Dr Chee himself should have gone back to the US where he earned his PhD and met his wife to work after he was managed out of NUS. He would have been very rich now living in a big landed house with many cars, a professor and his kids all Ivy league graduates.
"Seduced by the glitz and glam of New York City, An Lyn Chee decided to try her luck in the Big Apple in 2022. Then 23 and searching for a way to break into the fashion industry, the newly minted NUS Communications and Media Studies graduate wanted to follow in the footsteps of Rachel Green from the American sitcom Friends (1994 to 2004) and Andy Sachs from The Devil Wears Prada (2006)."
"She stayed in the role for a year before moving back to Singapore and eventually relocating to London in 2025, where she now works as a marketing and events specialist at jewellery brand Jessica McCormack."
