Personal life

Tosh grew up in the northern heartlands of Singapore. At 12, he fell in love with Hiphop culture through breakdancing and he was eventually recruited to be a member of Singapore's legendary pioneer breakdancing crew Radikal Forze in his teenage years. He began his journey into show business around 2010 when he started vlogging on YouTube with Tosh13 as his username and after he completed his military service in 2011, he would soon break into the entertainment industry in late 2012 with the films Ah Boys to Men (2012) and Ah Boys to Men 2 (2013).

Business/Career

Tosh has since started a shop with friends in Queensway Shopping Centre called Cream Capsule, which opened on 30 January 2021. The shop sells various types of street clothing among other accessories.[4]
