Got accepted for the SEAGA conference. Am filling up the confirmation of attendance then realized that I need to have a brief biography! I have written so many "about me" recently but how come suddenly I cannot find a single relevant one? Thus, decided to keep a reference here.
"A Master candidate and research scholar in the Department of Geography, National University of Singapore. Her research interest lies mainly in environmental geography, environmental behaviour, civil society, conservation and development interactions." - SEAGA
"A research scholar with the National University of Singapore doing a Masters in Geography specializing in environmental geography, this monkey has been known to be a freelance writer and passionate rambler for heritage, nature and all things Singapore." - Leafmonkey Blog
"The author is currently a research scholar in the Department of Geography, NUS and author of the Midnight Monkey Monitor blog (http://leafmonkey.blogspot.com)" - Elements, Issue 3, 2007
"November Tan is a research scholar in the NUS Department of Geography as well as an active nature volunteer and author of the Midnight Monkey Monitor blog (http://leafmonkey.blogspot.com). She currently coordinates nature workshops under the initiative known as The Leafmonkey Workshop." - Nature Watch, 2008
"November Tan is a graduate student in the Department of Geography. She is also a volunteer nature guide and author of various nature-related blogs. Her current research is on the regional environmental impacts of Singapore’s vegetable import." - Geosphere, 2008
An expanded version would be:

Her research interest lies mainly in environmental geography, environmental behaviour, civil society, conservation and development interactions. She is also actively involved with environmental NGOs in Singapore and is the author of Pulau Ubin Stories (http://pulauubinstories.blogspot.com) and Midnight Monkey Monitor (http://leafmonkey.blogspot.com)" - director's cut
