Kiki's passion for magic began while in school. While working as a part-time supervisor in a fast food restaurant, Kiki would spend most of his income on magic props and books, building his stage repertoires and working on his career at a very young age. In his early years, Kiki performed for his school functions and charity shows.

Kiki began his career as a professional magician in 1995 after he was discovered by Vivien Goh, owner of the Zephyhdom talent management company. Kiki worked in the company for five years as a magician, clown, balloon artist and juggler entertaining audiences at birthday parties and corporate events before he moved his focus on directing and consultation work. Kiki still performs professionally for corporate events. Kiki served in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Music & Drama Company where he received training in music, speech, drama, dance and acting. In his two years service in the company, Kiki received the title “Best Actor” in the outstanding artist award.
