Jane joined The Straits Times more than 20 years ago and has experience in education, parenting and lifestyle stories. She took a seven-year career break to do freelance writing and be home with her kids, and returned to the newsroom in 2021. Having been on both sides of the fence, she has gained a fresh outlook on working while mothering and tries to bring that dual perspective to her stories.
