I believe challenging myself is the only way to improve.

About

Personal Summary

I'm a very active person, which keeps me mentally balanced. I love picking up new skills and find myself drawn to tasks and experiences that push me out of my comfort zone. When I'm faced with a tough problem, I get a bit excited, and solving it is very satisfying

I am a highly motivated and determined individual always eager to learn new things. I consider myself an outgoing and friendly person who works well in a team environment. In my experience I’ve learnt how to properly convey information in a professional and understandable manner.
