Financial Services Consultant
Story
Many who have crossed paths with me in the recent years would say that I am highly capable, independent and career-oriented female. While I love that my community now associate me with competence and self-sustenance, I wasn’t always like this.
I got to where I am today through numerous life’s adversities.
Don’t get me wrong- growing up, I’ve never had to worry about food and shelter, and I also fared pretty well throughout my academic years, which I will always be grateful for.
Was life always smooth sailing for me? Hardly! I will always recall going though familial issues at 17, while my peers were focusing on A levels, I had to deal with late night drama, but I made it through. After graduating from Victoria Junior College, the next “normal” step would be to pursue a degree, but I struggled to align passion and career prospects- so I started working. Naturally, my parents disagreed, but I am a real stubborn one. From tough hours as a pastry chef (surprise!), to being a manager at 23 in a SME; I discovered that I had the ability to thrive at whatever environment I was put in, but there was something missing.
I woke up every day knowing what I had to accomplish and went to bed every night to repeat the routine. I was doing what I had to survive, and at the back of my mind, I’d always have the nagging feeling that I needed to do more, to justify to my parents that I could excel and live, instead of just floating by in life.
It wasn’t until I came across the opportunity to join the financial advisory industry that I found a place to make a change. It was the first time I connected love with career. Ask anyone, and they’d testify that I love what I do. To be able to lead people to a path of independence and self-sufficiency, to educate and change traditional mindsets towards insurance, to gain the massive trust that my clients have in me, and to inculcate better financial decisions in them. Truly, nothing can ever replace that.
Through my career, I’ve forged friendships in people I would otherwise have never gotten to know, and had the honour of being their confidant, or even regarded as a sister or daughter to some.
Something even closer to heart is my mother writing me a note acknowledging that she was incredibly proud when she witnessed me running my appointments over zoom and hearing her speak of my love for my job to her friends over the phone.
I’m sure most of you can all relate to how tough it is to gain a stamp of approval from our Asian parents, and along with the radical shift from objecting to actively supporting my choices, it’s a real testament of
what I’m doing right.
I look forward to journeying life together with you, too!

Read More About What Others Have To Say About Mikayla
”Having been friends with Mikz for ages, she has a truckload of banter which was how we functioned as really good friends. But as an advisor, she was really articulate in her pitch and she made the whole process really comfortable and bubbly, like her personality. Each of her packages whether protection or investment were catered specifically to each client, which I believe will be well received by anyone as it does not seem like a textbook copy paste to all clients, which is really lack of effort and personal touch. As a car salesman, this is akin to me selling a car and customising it from colour to material based on the client’s needs and wants, which was really refreshing and not common with other advisors I have met in my circle. Will definitely recommend Mikz to my friends and family members and anyone who needs this as unlike many advisors, she approaches her job with a “how can I help or improve my client’s life” standpoint, as opposed to “how much comms can I get from this”.

”I’ve always only considered Mikayla as my agent not solely due to personal connections, but because I was drawn to her genuine approach and dedication towards people. She has handled a few of my insurance / savings policies and is knowledgeable, patient and efficient, making sure that everything is tailored to my needs and comfort level. You know some agents are notorious for hard selling but never once was I pressured into getting anything.

In fact, she will only recommend something that is suitable, and not to her own personal benefits. You can ask as many questions and doubts and she will happily answer them in detail, which I truly appreciate! I entrust my portfolio to her because she is trustworthy. I have referred my family members to her and will continue to recco mend her if someone around me is looking for a trusted agent!
”Working with Mikayla is amazing because she is always able to break down complex content such as insurance / investment into simple explanations to help clients understand what they already have / need / are in for. The analogies also help to make serious topics sound less intimidating and she is not pushy so yeah, enjoyable to work with 🙂 Personally, I’ve known Mikayla for years and I know she takes pride in everything she does. Hence, I believe Mikayla knows her products well and she will be able to advise the best for her clients. I tend to have a goldfish memory for insurance and policies, so it’s great to have someone I trust in advising and overseeing my policies. So yes, I will definitely recommend my friends and family to her if they require assistance!

”I kickstarted my savings journey with Mik in 2020 and am beginning my investment journey with her now! She’s never been pushy with me, walks the talk (she buys her own policies too!) and because I’m only 21, respects that I wish to discuss with my parents. I will definitely recommend her to people I know because she’s never pushed me to make a quick decision and has always answered my 927374 questions to help me find the best solution!
Tze YiHome Baker
She knows her stuff and simplifies all her explanations, no jargons needed! I hustle hard so I respect that she isn’t just randomly recommending policies to me and even did up a whole summary for me, including the policies my parents got for me before I knew her. ++ points, she is overall like a cute older sister to me!
