Additional Information

I never had dreams to be doctor, scientist or lawyer like many other kids back in school. I never had the light bulb moment of what job I want to be in, but I have found my passion over time ‑ solving problems! I love problems!


Accurately, I love solving problem as a team!


I believe that all issues are opportunities in disguise, there is no greater joy when we are able to solve a customer/entity problem by enhancing an existing process and building an entirely new project as a team. Working together with a group of talented individuals to achieve a common business objective keep me going every day.


When I am not working, I enjoy spending my personal time reading and listening to music, learning new things about the great big world. I do workout as well to keep myself stay active and healthy.


I think the perfect me‑time is a beach getaway, with my reading materials and a nice cold beer (or some wine maybe).
