Biography

Who am I? I usually let people describe who I am.

I see myself as a self motivated entrepreneur, a smiley face, hard-working, crazy, abnormal, risk taker and considerate person. I believe in learning, because that is the root of Experience “There is nothing that is more helpful in life than listening to those who are experienced”

Nothing drives me crazy like not knowing, Yep, I am very curious. In the year2018, I dropped out of College (Rosebank College - IIE) to pursue a new venture with WethinkCode (an institutionthat was inspired by Ecole 42), which was an amazing experience, also reaped the benefitsof being able to learn new things quickly.

May the Force be with you.
