After two years in the army, he returned to the screen in 2013 with “Mata Mata,” an English drama set in the turbulent backdrop of 1950s-60s Singapore. His versatility shone through in 2014 when he starred in “The Caregivers,” his first full-length Chinese drama about healthcare professionals.
James expanded his repertoire by taking on a leading role in the 2015 film “1965,” a thriller commemorating Singapore’s 50th Independence anniversary. That same year, he joined the cast of “Tanglin,” Channel 5’s inaugural long-form drama series, which delves into the lives of Singaporean families across generations.
In addition to acting, James is a talented digital media designer with interests in drawing, photography, and singing, having produced various song covers. With his positive demeanor and passion, James is dedicated to establishing himself within the local entertainment landscape.
