About

My overall goal is to create a self sustaining stream of equity capital that will enable me to be financially free for the rest of my life. It's as simple as that. I'm also very good at reverse engineering processes and finding efficiency/logistical gaps, and quality assurance testing. Highly adept and intuitve when it comes to many different software platforms.
