Single-Tasking for Productivity and Stress Management

I used to be a big fan of multi-tasking when it became a popular strategy for productivity.

Testimonials and Referral Notes

Toh Weizhong. Principle Engineer. Chuah Shinney. Finance Executive.

Diana has been a trusted friend and my financial advisor for nearly 2 decades. She's knowledgeable and professional, always ready to share and help me in achieving my financial goals/ commitments. Over the years, there were many times when she went to great lengths to readjust my portfolio according to unexpected life challenges. Even when life seems all smooth sailing, she would always ensure my portfolio is reviewed at least once annually and adjusted, if necessary. In short, she's been providing valuable advice and recommending financial solutions tailored to meet my financial goals. She has always been so passionate about her job, which can be seen from her enthusiasm when sharing about the various solutions or options in rebalancing my portfolio. I believe that her professionalism over these years can only be sustained by her true passion to ensure that each of her client's financial needs are well taken care of. An outstanding financial adviser!

Rei Ng. Director. Diligo Marketing Pte Ltd

I have been a client of Diana since 2005. She has provided sound financial advice and brought my attention to areas I had never thought of in financial planning. I would readily recommend her to anyone who seeks a financial consultant that is experienced and who keeps in touch with her clients to help them reach their financial goals.

Danny Chew. Senior Operations Executive. OUB Centre Limited

Diana has been a great financial adviser and friend for the past decade. Since the first time I met up with her for the first financial review, Diana has shown the commitment of looking for positive ways to better my coverage, financial growth and retirement needs. Other than the quarterly meetups to review my coverage, there are also the constant sharing of market changes and updates of new plans Prudential has to offer. In the years of providing her expertise, she has been showing her in-depth understanding of financial planning. Along with a good listening ear, she has been recommending products to address my concerns. Unlike other financial planners, Diana is not pushy and does not focus on selling policies. Thanks to her recommendations, I am able to increase my coverage for the possible emergencies one can face in life, better my expected financial status at retirement and set my mind at ease should I ever meet with an unexpected situation. I look forward to the many more decades to come with Diana as my financial adviser.

Kevin Ho. Director. James King Group

Diana has been my financial adviser for more than 17 years and she is able to recommend suitable solutions through the different stages of my life; from a fresh graduate, to an employee, to a business owner, to a father. She is very knowledgeable, friendly, approachable and helpful. I will happily recommend her to anyone who's looking for holistic and personalised financial advice.

Erwin Wong. Supply Chain Planner.

I've been friends with Diana since the early 2000s, and she reached out to assist in planning for my financial needs when I entered the workforce. All through the stations of my life, Diana has offered sound advice and recommendations in making financial plans for my present and future. She has done so with her wealth of skills, experiences and expertise gained in the industry. Her accolades are a testament to her talent, ability and hard work put in as a financial consultant, but when we meet to catch up on life or to do regular financial reviews, we do so as long-time friends. This makes the friendship even more heartwarming, because Diana is someone that I would trust this important aspect of my life with.
