In her large, cavernous home in Ampang, Angie Tay is bustling about with purpose and determination. A charming, multi-talented woman with a smile at the ready for everyone, Tay is not known for sitting still and is constantly on the move, whether it’s to cut up a banana cake she’s just made or whip up some coffee.
