Creativity is another dimension that defines me I have been trained professionally in Drums I have participated in 3 concerts till date with an audience ranging from 100 to 250 plus. I have also excelled in Photography, a skill that was self-taught. This has given me reward & recognition in school from winning ' the best photographer' in MUNs to being the head of photography in a TEDx youth event, something I am extremely proud of.

My parents would describe me as a conscientious, mature and a clever person as these characteristics were developed due to my father's recurring absence linked to his job requirements. Among my friends, I am seen as a reliable, empathetic and a dynamic person.
My skills represent the branches, my constant growth represents the trunk and my aptitude to learn new things represents the roots of a tree.
