About KUANSIEW

My Story as an Author

I have two books—Take a Deep Breath for Me, a health memoir, and I Miss You, an illustrated collection about grief and loss. Both began the same way: with something true that needed to be said, and a stubborn belief that the right words could help someone carry it.

My Work as a Freelance Writer & Illustrator

As an engineer, I'm trained to conduct in-depth research and explain complex ideas clearly. As an illustrator, I bring a visual layer to storytelling, capturing moods and emotions beyond words. Combined, these skills help me deliver content that is not only accurate and polished, but also engaging and memorable. And because I pick up new subject matter quickly, I don't need lengthy briefings to get across an unfamiliar topic—I research it, I understand it, and I write about it accurately.

​

When I'm not writing, you'll probably find me playing the piano by ear, often at events, painting murals to raise funds for the charity I support, or daydreaming new stories. Creativity has always been the thread that ties everything I do together.
