The Art of
The Geisha
My Life Inspiration
Inspired by the philosophy of the Geisha—grace, discipline, and resilience—I bring these values into my approach to life and work.
Much like the art of the Geisha, financial planning requires dedication, skill, and thoughtful preparation.
For me, it’s not about accumulating products but about making informed decisions that lead to clarity, continuity, and confidence.

What People Say
I am thankful for being able to listen to parents share their stories about their aspirations, fears, and everything in between, and I am heartened by the trust and positive words of affirmation throughout this journey.
Had the opportunity to discuss my current financial planning with Jenelle, and she shared some new information on new instruments that could really benefit me in the long run! If anyone out there has any queries about your financial planning and if you are unclear about your current plans, you could always trust on Jenelle to give you a full and detailed analysis of your portfolio and what else is needed to cover your needs and wants.
Jenelle has been very patient and concise. She hears our concerns and recommends policies which are ideal for myself and my family. Most importantly, she's not pushy and does not mind repeating as I have very bad memory. Thank you, Jenelle!
We have benefited from Jenelle's sharing and was more like a discussion style rather than only from one sided, she shares her opinions and also respects ours. We like her thoughts process, she makes it easy for us to understand and explain to us without boring us down with details. What makes her different from others is that she listens attentively, always putting herself in our shoes and thinking what's best for us, very patient in repeating the explanations, especially for Joey. She's a great advisor and we trust her in our financial and insurance planning for the many years to come. 😁👍🏻👍
I used to know nothing about insurance and couldn’t be bothered with it. To me, it was always a very complicated matter. As an optimistic person, I felt that nothing ‘bad’ would happen to me, so I didn’t see the need for insurance. However, thanks to my dear friend Jenelle, whom I’ve known for more than a decade, she ‘opened’ my heart to insurance. She showed me that insurance is more than just protecting my life—it’s also about planning for the future. Jenelle made insurance simple for me to understand and even introduced me to the idea of wealth accumulation through insurance. Two years ago, I entrusted my son’s portfolio to her, and over these two years, I’ve seen firsthand that she truly has her client’s best interests at heart. Every year, she reviews my son’s portfolio to ensure he is well-covered. Jenelle is always just a message away if I have any questions, whether about insurance plans or claims. She never makes me feel like I’m bothering her, even with my sometimes repeated questions. She’s responsive, and efficient, and makes the claims process fuss-free and easy. Because of this, I’ve also entrusted my daughter’s portfolio to her—even when she was 39 weeks pregnant, Jenelle was there to handle everything for me! Not only is Jenelle our family advisor, but she also advises me on wealth accumulation. Thanks to her, both my kids and I have been able to put our money in places that yield much higher interest than the banks (I’m more excited about this than insurance! Haha!). If any of you are looking for a family advisor or need advice on wealth accumulation, I highly, recommend contacting Jenelle! I recently had a financial planning session with Jenelle, and the planning digital tool she used was amazing! It can simulate so many scenarios, which was really helpful for my planning. As always, Jenelle was very patient with all my questions and provided great advice. I will definitely recommend Jenelle to anyone who wishes to have sound financial advice from a super reliable advisor!
Jenelle has been extremely patient and supportive during my initial days in SIngapore. I was lucky to find Jenelle. With her meticulous, patient and accommodating approach, she ensures I understand the new market well. Knowing my unique employment status and personal situation, she laid out all the possibilities of insurance options. She also supported my team to learn more about the structure here. This brought a lot of comforts and developed trust to work with Jenelle. Jenelle connects to the person as her genuine self- this definitely set her aside from all the insurance representatives so far. In the interactions and connects, I feel I have found a friend too. Her experience and principles will help you chart out the insurance model here.
I got to know Jenelle through the recommendation of my spouse. He has been sharing with me about Jenelle for a while but I did not see the need to get to know her further since I had a stable consultant whom I go to regularly. But things took a turn in the early part of the year 2019 when I needed to purchase a policy for my mother and my spouse recommended Jenelle once again and this round I met her with an open mind. There are so many consultants available but why Jenelle? Before meeting her, I felt that I was like any other customer that any consultant can have on the street. I have a consultant I used to go to regularly but stopped servicing me for almost 3 years. There were no updates, no reviews, no follow-up and before my last meeting with him, I waited almost an hour at the café for him. As I aged, got married and my priority in life changed when my baby girl came along. I needed a consultant who could assure me and was willing to walk things through with me. I decided to change consultants on my account and the thing I never wanted it to happen, happened. I ended up receiving several notifications in my mailbox informing me that my consultant had been changed… again & again. All within 12 months. Jenelle changed my perception of financial advisor. During our first meeting, she came prepared and ready to handle any situation and/or questions I had for her. My mother’s policy was settled within the meeting and there is no further action required. Ever since, Janelle has been extremely proactive, and consistent with sending updates, sharing sessions and being responsive. During the circuit breaker period, Jenelle took the extra effort to send a vitamin C care pack together with a handwritten stay-safe card to me and my family. Coincidentally, I am pregnant with my second child and I was looking at maternity care coverage. This round, I took the initiative to contact Jenelle personally. Jenelle was swift in arranging a Zoom call with me and understanding what I was looking for. She explained everything in detail and in the simplest form I can understand. I have been contacting her extensively over the last few months and she has always been really quick in getting back and answering all my queries. After several encounters with Jenelle, I have entrusted her to review all the policies I’ve bought previously. She took it seriously without hesitation and gave me insightful feedback for my consideration. She made me understand the importance of planning my finances and most importantly she used the easiest term to explain to me and I remember it. How would I describe my overall experience with Jenelle? The level of attention she pays is over the top and she makes me feel like a VIP walking into a luxury boutique. She is never pushy and will be by your side when you need assistance. She takes her time to understand your needs, and will not chase you away just because you need more time compared to others. Jenelle is truly dependable and engaging her services gives me a great sense of assurance and confidence in my future finances not only for myself but also for my children.
Jenelle is someone I have total trust in my financial planning. She listens patiently and always goes the extra mile to find variable solutions to my exact problems, not only in financial planning but also in my personal life. She's a good friend with whom I can share anything and everything under the sun. I am sure she can value add to you and is a great person to know.
Meeting Jenelle felt like reconnecting with an old friend, even though it was our first meeting. Jenelle is undoubtedly knowledgeable, passionate, patient, and professional. The session with her was incredibly useful, providing a direct, visualized, and comprehensive overview of our current and future financial situation. The digital planning tool she used factored in additional expenses, such as raising a child, giving us a clearer understanding of the potential risks we face and enabling us to make logical and informed decisions about the right insurance choices to cover those risks. Through her referral, a property advisor also helped us find our dream home! Don’t miss out on a helpful and resourceful friend—now you know who you should talk to. I highly recommend Jenelle as your personal financial consultant!
We know Jenelle through Charmaine's brother's recommendation. Jenelle is very prompt in her replies and shows genuine concern for her clients. Not only does she recommend suitable products for her clients, but also processes the claims speedily. We, as clients, only do minimal work (e.g. provide the receipts and described the case) while she handled the rest of the claim process smoothly. You can place 101% trust in Jenelle for she places her clients' interests first. I recalled there was a time when she made time to pop by my house at night to settle my newborn application for H&S. That is despite that I only informed her on the same day and she had to fly the next day! Thanks Jenelle!
