My profile

I am a young man of 33 years old and married. Very passionate about my work, full of energy and determination to contribute my little to make this beautiful world a better place for all.

What ever i do is greatly informed by my immediately past and childhood, having to grow up as a physically challenged child in a poor background gave me little opportunities to develop. Even within the family you are normally the last to be considered for personally development because your are regarded as not having the potentials for a quick return on investments when a Cost-Benefit Analysis is done.

But thank God today am a person people from all walks of life look up and derive inspiration from.
