As an electrical engineering graduate beginning his career as a professional electrical engineer, I am incredibly proud of several achievements. Firstly, receiving the award as the top electrical engineering student of 2022 is a great honor and a testament to the hard work and dedication I put into my studies. Additionally, receiving eight certificates of merit for various modules demonstrates my ability to excel in a variety of areas within the field of electrical engineering. These certificates not only serve as a recognition of my academic achievements but also showcase my skills and knowledge in various areas of the field. Overall, these accomplishments have helped me to gain confidence in my abilities as an electrical engineer and have motivated me to continue working hard to achieve further success in my career.

I have more than five years of experience in the tutoring field. I have tutored during high-school and university to dozens of students of all ages. Many of these students had significantly improved their term and semester marks after a mere couple weeks of consistent tuition, encouragement, and their own ability for hard work. 

I believe that my problem-solving skills and attention to detail make me a valuable asset in helping others. I am able to analyze complex problems and find creative solutions that may not be immediately obvious to others. Additionally, I understand the importance of accuracy and precision in electrical engineering, and I take great care to ensure that my work is thorough and error-free.

Finally, I believe that my passion for the field and desire to make a positive impact on the world are what truly drive me to help others. I understand that the work I do as an electrical engineer can have a significant impact on society, and I am committed to using my skills and knowledge to make a difference in the lives of others.

I have recently earned a position as a Power Systems & Network Modelling Electrical Engineer at Zutari Pty (Ltd) based in Pretoria, Gauteng. Zutari is the leader of engineering consulting in the entire Southern African region. Although it is still early, I have been part of many important projects based in Namibia, Botswana, Nigeria, and Mozambique. 

I had attended the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN) between 2018 and 2022. I have recently graduated with a BSc. degree majoring in Electrical Engineering. I am currently enrolled as a part-time master's candidate at UKZN, where I plan to explore the benefits of the application of Green Hydrogen in the electrical grid.
