What I do: - Balancing the innovation equation by ‘gently’ optimising the 4 pillars of the organisation - people, processes, products and profitability - Turning abstract ideas into tangible products - I mediate between customers, sales, business experts, engineers and designers to increase return on investment. - Seeing through jargon to filter out the noise from the hype - Building trusting relationships across the stakeholder hierarchy

As a seasoned legal and regulatory counsel, I bring extensive experience in navigating complex financial regulations across APAC, with a strong focus on payment services, fintech, and cryptoasset compliance. My career spans roles at leading companies like BVNK, Spenmo, Syfe, and Lyte Ventures, where I’ve successfully secured key regulatory licenses, developed comprehensive compliance frameworks, and supported strategic expansion into new markets. With a proven track record in managing high-stakes licensing processes, leading cross-functional teams, and advising on cross-border payment solutions, I am dedicated to helping companies thrive in today’s fast-evolving regulatory landscape.

Driven by a hunger for growth and discovery, I'm constantly drawn to new challenges that push me beyond my limits. I firmly believe that learning is a lifelong journey, and I'm always seeking ways to broaden my horizons, both personally and professionally. Approaching each task as an opportunity to grow, I dive in with enthusiasm and determination, always striving to exceed expectations. I thrive on the excitement of tackling the unknown and finding innovative solutions. While I may lean towards introspection, I'm a team player at heart. I value collaboration and enjoy working closely with others, listening attentively and contributing wholeheartedly to achieve our shared goals.

He is also familiar with bank integration, static and dynamic Virtual Account (VA) processing, card processing, batch transfers (ACH-style payments), as well as integrating with alternate payment methods (APMs) such as QR codes, E-wallets, etc. He witnessed integrating these first-hand, being the first engineering hire at Rapyd APAC. Having coded since age 10, Joel's passion lies in bringing ideas together with code. His range of experiences include being flown-in to hack at the 2019 run of the Facebook F8 Hackathon (held annually at San Jose), participating and winning 2nd at the Singapore Airlines App Challenge Hackathon, and while in college, contributing to Open Source for course credit, being part of Facebook's App Academy program held Menlo Park. Joel has a background in the aviation industry, having worked at Singapore Airlines as a Software Engineer. During his tenure, he founded a Makerspace which encouraged tinkering with ideas.

Tifanis is a counsellor/psychotherapist passionate about helping individuals heal from trauma, attachment wounds, and the downstream challenges they have in their lives. Grounded in the neuroscience of trauma recovery and psychotherapy, Tifanis’s therapeutic approach recognises that lasting change is not achieved through just thinking differently, using willpower, or talking about our problems. It also involves cultivating a felt sense of safety and okay-ness in our own skin. From there, we can start embodying the best version of ourselves, responding rather than reacting, and living in alignment with our present-day values rather than being driven by past patterns. To this end, Tifanis employs brain- and body-based modalities (see the “Qualifications” section below for more details) to complement traditional therapeutic modalities such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and mindfulness. Tifanis graduated with a Master’s in Counselling from Flinders University of South Australia and a Bachelor’s degree in Social Science (Psychology, Sociology) from Singapore Management University. In addition to her clinical role, she has been a certified yoga teacher since 2020 and has spent years practising attunement to the mind-body connection in herself and others. Between completing her Bachelor's and completing her Master’s, Tifanis worked in the Tech industry, Advertising & Marketing, and also ran a business in Consumer Packaged Goods. Her diverse professional background gives her a grounded, real-world perspective that informs her relational and practical approach to therapy. Tifanis is based in Singapore. She works with local and expatriate clients presenting with concerns across anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and marriage, career and workplace, burnout and more. Qualifications: • Attachment-focused EMDR Therapist, Parnell Institute, USA • Neurogenic Yoga™️ & Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises®️ (TRE®️), TRE for ALL, USA • Brainspotting, BSPUK, UK • ⁠Registered Yoga Teacher (Yoga Alliance International)
