After serving as a recruit in the Singapore Armed Forces, Wynsey pursued a civilian staff scholarship with the Ministry of Defence to contribute towards formulating gender-responsive and effective manpower policies. She graduated from University College London with a focus on applied quantitative methods in social science and political philosophy. Her academic interests center on examining the impacts of inefficient bureaucratic structures and exploring strategies for governments to foster a workforce of dedicated and empowered public servants.

In her free time, Wynsey loves struggling with an occasional coding project, catching up with friends over long coffee chats, and walking about while getting lost in a good audiobook.

Wynsey is a Defence Merit Scholar.
