Rachel graduated from King's College, London (LL.B.) in 2013 with First Class Hons. Since then, she has worked as a corporate M&A lawyer in leading international law firms such as White & Case LLP, Hogan Lovells Lee & Lee and Allen & Gledhill LLP in Singapore and London. She is also a committee member of The Law Society of Singapore (Corporate Committee and the CPD Committee). Whilst helping a founder in his series fundraising process in Singapore, she was impressed by how 'founder-friendly' certain venture capital funds and law firms in Silicon Valley were – in particular, Founders Fund. She also felt that the legal community in Singapore could do better in providing more robust legal support for the growing startup community in South-east Asia, whilst noting cultural nuances and trends in this region. With this in mind, Founders Doc was born in 2021. Founders Doc collaborates with Eugene Thuraisingam LLP, where she spearheads the Corporate Practice, with the hope that founders in South-east Asia get the full support that they need.
