Deanne believes in the three critiques: critique of self, critique of others, and critique of art. On weekdays, she receives lots of critiques about herself, which she never fails to critically evaluate. On weekends and evenings, she expends her energies on critiques of art. Whenever the opportunity arises, she will critique others. Deanne earns her keep as a policy analyst at MINDEF. She likes most things modern and some things American - more in terms of its art than its foreign policy.
