Jane Lee (mountaineer)

[1][6] After successfully climbing up Mount Everest, Lee targeted the rest of the Seven Summits and promptly quit her former job as a senior executive at Singapore's Republic Polytechnic's Adventure Learning Centre to become a professional full-time mountaineer, securing sponsorships for her climbs from organisations such as MindChamps, a tuition centre company in Singapore, Bank Julius Baer, a Swiss bank, and Khunu, a Himalayan company selling wool of mountain yaks in the Himalayas, at the same time.

[3] During her climbing of the Seven Summits, Lee was plagued by problems such as drastic snow storms, a hard landing on a runway of solid ice on Mount Vinson, experiencing five different weather conditions in Tanzania and having to elude police from Russia on Mount Elbrus, which had been sealed off due to high activity by terror groups.

"[10] As a fan of reading, Lee enjoys indulging in the works of American author Ayn Rand, one of her favourite writers.

[10] Though strict in her personal fitness regime, Lee has admitted in an interview to "eating everything from char kway teow to McDonald's french fries and Hainanese chicken rice".

[10] In addition to conducting motivational speeches for business organisations, schools and public groups, Lee blogs on her personal website, janeclimbs.com, and for Straits Times Online Mobile Print, a Singapore webpage meant for citizen journalism.
