Ms Goh Mia Yang

An alumna of the NUS Law School, Mia Yang joined the university after eight years in legal practice. Little did she know that she would spend the next 19 years at the helm of the Law School's administration team, overseeing various departments and ensuring the smooth running of the day-to-day operations. Mia Yang’s involvement with student life started much earlier when she was appointed Resident Fellow of Temasek Hall (2003- 2011), Resident Advisor of Kuok Foundation House (2011 – 2016) and Resident Fellow of Raffles Hall (2016 - 2017). Her experience as a residential staff for 14 years laid a solid foundation for the work she is undertaking as part of the OSA team today. Mia Yang’s support for the arts extends beyond her professional career to being a proud parent of a local theatre practitioner.
