Beyond academics, I dedicate time to projects that allow me to experiment, learn, and apply innovation in practical ways. These experiences sharpen both my technical and entrepreneurial skills, while also pushing me to think creatively about problem-solving.
3D Modeling & Design – Using tools like Blender, I create product models and visual concepts that can be used for advertising, prototyping, or design communication. This has strengthened my ability to translate ideas into tangible visual solutions.
Twix Digital Solutions – I founded Twix, a digital services brand that helps businesses enhance their online presence and streamline operations. Twix offers a wide range of services including Google Business listing, website creation, and workflow automation tools that improve communication management and data tracking. This venture has taught me how to merge technology with business needs to deliver impactful results.
Problem-Solving in Action – I continuously look for opportunities to apply innovative thinking to real-world challenges, whether through volunteer projects, experimental tools, or offering digital services. Each initiative allows me to test ideas, learn from outcomes, and refine my approach to building efficient solutions.
