Dr Darren is a thought-leader in the area of total human development, including mindset breakthroughs, leadership, youth education and functional health and wellness.

Dr Darren graduated from the University of Singapore (NUS) with a medical degree (MBBS) at the age 24 years-old in the year 2000. His goal was to complete his houseman and continue his medical career towards neurosurgery.

Unfortunately, in that very same year, he suffered a near-fatal stroke that left him half paralyzed over the right side of his body, unable to articulate and unable to see his right visual field.

Thankfully, his cognitive strength was left intact. Hence, he was still determined to pursue his journey towards doctoring. Yet, after 3 years of intense rehabilitation, he was still not allowed to continue his practice because at that time, he was still not very mobile and the concern was that he may not be able to respond to emergencies should there be any in the hospital. Nevertheless, he decided to continue his job as a healthcare administrator only to realise his strength was not behind a desktop but towards direct interaction with people whom he can impact.

After finishing his MSc, he started Potter's Clay Education, which was the first to offer a complete refund if students do not score an A1 or A2 for their O-Levels in Science and Math subjects.

Subsequently, he started Mindset Transformation Clinic, where he trains adults on mindset shifts to help people attain peak performance at work and in life. His strong interest in functional health & genomics led him to continue partnering with associates in achieving optimal outcomes with both conventional and complementary alternative medical treatments.

Believing in his personal motto of "Disability is only in the mind", he went on to be a para-athlete and won a Gold medal for Singapore at the 2015 ASEAN Games in the sport of wheelchair table tennis. Also, he completed a full Spartan Race. He gives back to the community by volunteering his time as a Board member in a few NGOs and being an ambassador to people with disability.

He has also received multiple awards for his contribution to society, notably, Best Executive Coach, Leader of Heads and Hearts, Successful Entrepreneur, Young Outstanding Singaporean and the Goh Chok Tong Enable Award.
