Experience at a glance

A creative & a developer | An out-of-the-boxer & meticulously organized | I hang in my right brain often but can’t ignore that left.

I am A “Jack-Of-All-Trades.”

Some folks may see it as a red flag but what they may fail to see… is opportunity. Advance in various trades, always strive for excellence and being open-minded to grow in new and current skill-sets. I possess the curiosity, I take the initiative and I am driven to learn, practice, risk, fail, accomplish, educate and inspire.
