About

With an energetic and sociable personality, I find joy in meeting people from all walks of life.

Whether my duty is to provide an experience or collaborate in a team, making others smile is my strong suit. As an avid gamer, there are many skills that can be transferrable to the working world,

such as multitasking, working under pressure in a team, having a strategic mindset, and paying attention to details. This passion leads to my strengths in accomplishing tasks that require a more hands-on and practical approach; this is reflected in my milling and casting work.
