Growing up in Malaysia โ surrounded by Chinese, Malay, and Indian food cultures โ gave me a deep curiosity for flavors and storytelling through food.
While it may seem like a fun side project to post pictures of delicious-looking food and my cooking adventures, I use foodieforthebelly to learn more about content creation and also the usage of social media marketing.
Working in marketing, it was crucial that I reflect the skills of social media content creation, which has undoubtedly become highly prominent in the marketing space over the years. Apart from learning to edit and create user-generated content, I use this account to keep up with trends and observe the constant changes in the social media algorithm.
Along the way, I've partnered with local restaurants and F&B brands for content collaborations, and have had my work featured on blogs and restaurants' accounts!
In exchange for content, I have also gotten free food!
Beyond the screen
I love all sorts of racquet sports, including tennis and pickleball, which stemmed from growing up playing competitive badminton!
I also love strategy and board games, and never turn down a good game night.
