Carista Liew
Arts Business Management Graduate, Class of 2019
Carista is currently an Integrated Marketing Executive at Cross Ratio Entertainment, where she oversees business development, corporate client account services and campaigns, event execution and project management, as well as marketing and public relations.
From meeting JJ Lin to planning a marketing campaign for a concert, ABM has opened the doors of opportunities and possibilities for me. In fact, I landed myself a full-time job after my internship at Cross Ratio Entertainment!
Mandy Lim
Arts Business Management Graduate, Class of 2013
Mandy works at the National Heritage Board as an Assistant Manager. She oversees education, community outreach and heritage institutions.
“It was not a popular choice to pursue a ‘soft’ career in the Arts and Humanities back then. Glad that HMS was there to provide me with the opportunity. It has taught me to continuously value Humanities as a core discipline. ABM, as a diploma, helped me to set foot in the industry, mingle and better understand various organisations. I couldn’t have gained such exposure and knowledge elsewhere.” ⠀
Mandy interacts with people a lot in this job. “I am able to witness how lives are changed in positive ways. Be it developing new friendships, or something as simple as people stepping into the museum for the first time, it is truly the connection and personal touch with every individual that makes a difference, and the job less of a ‘job’.”⠀
Having just returned from a two-month ASEAN exchange programme, Mandy has set a milestone for herself. “I am deeply inspired to make a change. I would like to establish a social enterprise in the arts and culture sector, and hopefully develop it on an international platform.”⠀
We are highly inspired by Mandy too. We can’t wait to hear good news from her!
