In my reasonably short working career I have achieved a lot of experience with the help from excellent mentors and managers. This includes software engineering, architecture, development life cycles, project management, line management and business analysis. I enjoy working with passionate people and enterprise technologies. My ambition is to be instrumental in developing innovative solutions which benefit the generations to come. I very much enjoy being part of a dynamic and fast moving company. My goal is to establish a legacy of my own in which I hope would inspire others to try as hard as I do.
