Meet the team
I am a confident communicator who stands out with my unique thinking and positive outlook. I embrace failure as an opportunity for growth and believe that it is the journey, not just the end result, that leads to success. I am passionate about design and always strive to bring out the best in any project I work on.
I am passionate about fitness and the impact it has on both the mind and body. It serves as a personal outlet and helps me maintain a positive mindset. Engaging in physical activity such as weight lifting and sprinting is a key part of my self-care routine.
Fitness enthusiast
I am a unique individual who loves rodents, specifically chinchillas. I have a pet hamster named Pumpkin who is smart, curious and affectionate.
Rodent lover
I am an avid runner who has evolved from sprinting to running longer distances. Running helps me maintain determination, motivation and relieves stress. I used to Sprint 100m is 13.1 seconds.
The runner
Stepping outside of one's comfort zone by trying new activities is important for learning new skills, developing a new perspective, and breaking up the monotony of daily life.
