Deidre Foo also known as "Prologue", co-founder of Bookcrossing Singapore has never liked to read when she was in school. She often says it is her karma right now to read and be in love with books. Deidre is a business consultant, who helps people with enterprising minds to jump start their businesses. She has also recently branch into fashion with her new line of apparels.
During her secondary years, she picked up a drenched book in the little drain next to her class one day after a heavy downpour. She picked up the book, dry it under the sun when she was home and after reading, she left the book into the auditorium praying the book will land in someone’s hand eventually – someone who would cherish this book better than its previous owner. This is how her destiny with bookcrossing first started.
Andy Ho, co-founder is better known as "chapter1" in our group. He is an avid reader of all genres of books. His dream all along has been to meet and exchange thoughts with fellow booklovers, share views on authors and make friends all over the world. Andy is currently working as a technical support representative for RIM. Despite his busy schedule, he takes time off to arrange our monthly Bookcrossing meetups and has met with several fellow bookcrossers all the way from Canada during his vocation for a couple of months recently.
Alva Chew, or "Epilogue", is an founding member, and provides design and web-related support to the group. Reading is both an enjoyment and a source of knowledge enhancement to him, who can go for hours non-stop to finish a good read. Professionally, Alva owns Stridec Creatives, a creative boutique that provides integrated solutions for the web and print media.
He also recently created ZippyWebdesign, a budget website design service to help cash-strapped new startups and small businesses create a web presence and enhance their market exposure.
