Summary

Working in the field of IT is one of my passions I enjoy doing it every day. With a Diploma, I started from a humble beginning as a computer laboratory assistant technician from year 2011 to my current position as the Senior IT Officer. In my 10 years of working experience, I have faced many challenges that tested my skills and knowledge and allowed me to learn new things in my IT career. However, with the latest IT trends, there is room for learning and improvement.


I am a quick learner and work mostly unsupervised, if a task is beyond my skills I go out of my way to research and gather information to achieve a complicated task. Challenges are something I am eager to face to raise my level of skills.


To conclude, I am an optimistic person who loves learning new things in new environments, travelling and meeting new people is something I love to do.
