Early life
Seow studied at St. Patrick's School and Catholic High School. He earned an Advanced Diploma in fashion design, jewellery design and merchandising from Lasalle-SIA College of the Arts.
Career
Seow was a model in Singapore and in other parts of Asia before becoming an actor on local television. He is best known for his role as the fiery tempered eldest son Gary Tay in the long-running drama series Growing Up on MediaCorp TV Channel 5, a role which earned him the Best Newcomer in the annual Asian Television Awards in 1996.[2][3] Seow has also starred in numerous Chinese-language dramas on Channel 8, garnering nominations in the annual Star Awards.
Seow was talent-spotted by a Television Corporation of Singapore (TCS) producer in 1996 and subsequently joined TCS. In the mid-90s, Seow, Jason Oh, Thomas Ong, Raymond Yong and Henry Tee formed the boy group The Dragons Five, which was named after the Channel 8 series of the same title.[3]
Since 2010, Seow has been a Senior Curator with Tsu Ho Gallery which specializes in fine art, antiques and jewellery.[4]
