My core values include freedom, integrity, and resilience, which align with my passion for entrepreneurship. I have always been drawn to opportunities that allow me to create something meaningful and solve problems, which is evident in my business ventures and hobbies. My interests in technology and finance have steered me toward projects such as creating a theme park app, developing financial analysis scripts, and co-founding a startup focused on selling refurbished gaming computers.

Why am I here

Pursuing a Diploma in Business Studies

I chose to pursue a diploma in Business Studies because it aligns with my passion for entrepreneurship and problem-solving.
