An "out of the box" thinker, I believe strongly in innovation and limitless possibilities in life. These are the major factors that have spurred me to broaden my horizon and scope of knowledge. With a 1st degree in Environmental Management, I sought to diversify my scope of knowledge and delved into the Information technology (I.T) sector focusing on Product Design (UX/UI). An autodidact in this new field of interest, I have honed my skill in the past years through constant practice and tasks completed; kudos to experts in this field that assisted with materials and files that guided me on the path to this achievement. My ability to learn on the job is a skill I pride myself in. This has helped me grow constantly and remain relevant over the years.
