Su-Lin Tan
Su-Lin threw out her corporate pinstripe suit for the pen and a whole lot less money. She was a Melbourne University business graduate who went on to do her finance pilgrimage in London after many hours spent in the audit room of a big accounting firm.
She has spent time in many a corporate cubicle, including those of AMP and what was Babcock & Brown. Her longstanding affair with the Excel spreadsheet means she can probably concoct a lethal dose of words and numbers into a yarn. Business aside, she enjoys writing a good death-defying travel story or, be in one, and calls a town named Johor Bahru in Malaysia her birthplace.

They should update other things in the game too.
