Serene Tan

Research Associate

Serene is a researcher with a background in communications and psychology. Highly inquisitive by nature, she dives into every challenge and emerges with a head full of ideas and a heart fuelled by passion.

As a devout believer of evidence-based lifelong learning, Serene puts her analytical instinct to work through any endeavour.

From working in the Ministry of Social and Family Development to volunteering in the local branch of Narcotics Anonymous, Serene lives and searches for the great equalizer. One that rids humanity of our unsubstantiated biases is focused on highlighting the differences that
separate us. Instead, she is determined to bridge all gaps by demonstrating that our similarities are quintessential in collaborating on a path forward. Serene’s firm belief in story-telling as a learning medium sustains her faith that music and video games capture and translate the zeitgeist of the era into palatable bites. In her downtime, she is either composing instrumentals on the piano while adding twists with technology or traversing through another universe on the back of a mouse and a keyboard.

Aside from playing minion to her two cats, Serene also pores through texts of philosophers, both classical and contemporary alike. She maintains that history does not repeat, but will rhyme should we fail to understand its rich lessons.

Serene has a BA in Psychology from the University at Buffalo, State University of New York.

Since 2009, she has worked with the Association of Women for Action and Research (AWARE) to provide training and consultancy in Workplace Sexual Harassment, Comprehensive Sexuality Education and Media Literacy.

She also facilitated forum theatre and has given talks at various Institutions of Higher Learning, including Yale-NUS, Nanyang and Republic Polytechnics and the Institutes of Technical Education (ITE). With COVID forcing all interactions online in 2020, she turned to webinars and presented as a panel speaker with the Ministry of Education (MOE), guiding parents with children transitioning to secondary school. Over the years she has also contributed articles and interviews to various magazines (MOE’s schoolbag.edu.sg, The Asian Parent and Sassy Mama SG) in the capacity of educator and parent.

Trained in neuro-linguistic programming, Sherlin applies various aspects of its principles in her instruction, especially in the area of effective communication. Her background in gender studies has honed her sensitivity to diversity, equity and inclusion, as has her experience volunteering with the underprivileged. She is also a ‘book’ for the Human Library of Singapore – advocating for the rights of single mothers and speaking up for the marginalised.

Sherlin Giri is a mother of 2 spirited teenagers.
