Biography

Story of a guy who dreams of peacechangeinnovationadvocacy

I began trying to understand the purpose of life as a teenager, around the age of 14. Before that, I was simply going through the motions, unaware that I could think for myself or develop my own philosophy. Did those 14 years go to waste, or were they spent enjoying my youth? It depends on how one interprets it.

At 15, I entered the world with a blind mind and heart, just beginning to learn about life. Despite that, I still managed to get straight As in PT3, except for English. Perhaps my English back then wasn’t as strong as it is now. By the time I turned 17, with the support of my best friend Ilham, I achieved straight As in SPM, including an A in English.

With many paths ahead of me, I chose to stay and study in Malaysia, pursuing a Foundation in Physical Science with the hope of staying connected with my friends. During this time, I was still searching for my passion, scrolling through Google and UPU. It was also the first time I started exploring graphic design.

I came across Social Science, majoring in Social Work. Needless to say, I was captivated from the first week of class. There’s something fulfilling, enjoyable, and heartwarming about helping people. Combined with my skills in graphic design, I aspire to contribute to society, advocate for causes, and work toward achieving social justice for all.

This is my story.
