Versatility. Integrity. Spirituality. Ingenuity. Open-mindedness. Nobility (VISION, for short).

Although having a background in Agricultural Engineering, I have experience in the construction industry managing and supervising projects.

I have a keen interest in software and cloud engineering having worked with Flutter, React, NodeJS, and AWS services.
