There’s no shortage of remarkable ideas, what’s missing is the will to execute them.

Summary
Diligent College Student focused on Software Engineering (Hons) student pursuing flexible part-time employment with weekend and evening shift options.
What is important for me is to give my best in everything that I do. It is because I am never satisfied with anything that is mediocre. I would prefer to go for something that is better than the best. For instance, while I was in primary school, I went to one of the topmost schools in Lusaka, Lusaka International Community School (LICS) under the University of Cambridge, this has laid a strong foundation for me; on which I have built upon my academic career. Also, only putting 100% effort into all tasks gives me the satisfaction of doing them. Hence, I ended up securing brag-worthy grades in IGCSE and IB; opted for a challenging Software Engineering course from The University of Sydney, which is pushing me out of my comfort zone to achieve my goals; aim for an even tougher course.
