Isaiah is relentless in pursuing his mission, using his creativity to problem solve, people skills to galvanise stakeholders and resourcefulness to put things altogether for execution. I really appreciate his transparent and collaborative approach to leadership, which was evident in his interactions with the team at ProAge and Empower. I am grateful to have the opportunity to work and learn with Isaiah in various capacities. Looking forward to more shared learning and adventures in the journey ahead where "a future for seniors must always be possible"!

      • Jul 2007 - Present

      Founded ProAge with a mission to create opportunities for individuals to live and age well. My aspiration was to start a social enterprise that solves the issues in health & wellness that hinders people from ageing well. That has led me into chronic disease management, health promotion, programme development, education and training, to consultancy with emphasis on creating social capital to benefit those especially who are old, poor and sick. I believe and advocate the concept of “changing how we age” that will lead to a better and positive life. Live well and leave well :) Show less
