About Me
An IT geek since the age of six who had an amazing opportunity to be a part of the pre-internet era experiencing the intensive technological achievements and being lucky enough to play with a wide range of technologies and meeting a bunch of amazing people in that path.
I find myself as a highly motivated, proactive, reliable and hard-working person. An extrovert and a problem solver. Flexible to adapt in any team or work environment. Friendly, focused and calm in stressed situations.
