Born on Vancouver Island on the west coast of Canada, Skye Skagfeld graduated from the University of Vancouver Island with a BA in Tourism Management. She has done youth event planning for the municipal government and worked on community development projects in interior British Columbia.
Skye stumbled upon Singapore after finishing a short contract in Vancouver Asia; her “visit” extended past her intended departure date as she picked up a job teaching Holiday ESL programs to little ones from Vietnam, China, Indonesia and Thailand.
She loves reading, writing, the sun, and is a self-proclaimed culinary master. Skye likes to meet people and enjoys the tiny, sunny island of Singapore as well as the vibrancy and diversity of the city.
