About The Scientist

I am a highly ambitious, assertive and optimistic goal getter, one who believes in possibility and dare to make strides towards an impactful goal. I love innovation and thought provoking scientific endeavours which are targeted at adding value to people’s lives and making our planet cleaner. I love to ask questions and subject theories and ideas to scrutiny so as to discover more. My drive towards success and accomplishments is hinged on the principles of team work, respect, humility, a teachable spirit, confidence, team building and mutual action. I believe our world can get a whole lot better when we ask more questions and we learn to add on to the wealth of knowledge in the body of science and technology, the moon is too close to be the target for success.
