Zhenhao first discovered his knack for commercial writing during a marketing internship at one of Singapore’s local real estate agencies. From there, he proceeded to provide freelance copywriting services for e-commerce and renovation companies before submitting his first Etymon-commissioned piece in April 2021. 

Since then, Zhenhao has worked closely with a range of clients including government boards, telcos, cybersecurity, and medtech, producing SEO-optimised content such as blogs, white papers, landing pages, social media content, eDMs, and business proposals. As a copywriter with inherent curiosity, Zhenhao has learned to assist Etymon with WordPress design & development, SEO audits, and graphic design since joining full-time.

Zhenhao holds a Degree in Global Studies from the National University of Singapore, where he double minored in the languages of Japanese and Korean. He has used Korean and Chinese language in professional settings to conduct financial research and translate marketing material into English.
