By day, she’s splits her time between being a neurotic stalker who prowls through the deep, dark web, tapping into your conversations while twiddling with creative campaigns & by night, you’d find her entrenched in the rabbit hole of geek reads ranging from the likes of politics, conspiracy theories to pop-culture. Prior to joining Peatix, she’s spent a bulk of her career in media marketing with stints in Singapore’s leading media organisations - Mediacorp & SPH and regional business publication Newsweek & in 2014, she took a leap (of faith) and forayed into public service with Sport Singapore, where she was part of the Singapore Southeast Asian Games Organising Committee (SINGSOC), championing efforts in Community Outreach and social media marketing for the SEA Games and ASEAN Para Games 2015.Beverly Hiong, founder, Music and MakanClassical music is the lifelong passion of Music & Makan’s founder, Beverly Hiong. After graduating with a Bachelor's degree in Economics from the London School of Economics, Beverly returned to her passion and pursued additional studies in cello performance at Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music (Singapore).
Consequently, Beverly was selected to be a Sistema Fellow at the New England Conservatory (Boston), where she studied intensive group-based music education youth development programmes across the United States. Beverly also had the opportunity to teach music in a month long residency in El Sistema (a nation-wide music education programme) in Venezuela, and was privileged to experience the immense power that music had to connect and build communities. She has also worked in the National Arts Council to develop the music sector in Singapore.
In 2012, based on her firm belief that classical music can be appreciated by everyone if it is presented in an engaging and relevant manner, Beverly founded Music and Makan to share her love for music with the wider public through innovative audience engagement techniques. She is a passionate advocate for Singapore's brilliant classical musicians to be heard and understood by the wider public and continues to seek out and create opportunities for them to engage in a performance dialogue with new audiences - a stepping stone in her relentless pursuit of bringing communities together through the arts.Dr Daniel Loy, Director of the Centre of Learning & Innovation, PetrosainsDaniel is the Director of the Centre of Learning & Innovation, Petrosains which looks at innovative approaches to science education while leading free choice learning research.
