I am an Electrical & Instrumentation (E&I) Technician with over 9 years of industry experience in industrial automation, instrumentation, and control systems. My current professional focus now is Digital protection (siprotec) , GIS, AIS and overall power protection systems where I am intentionally building strong field-based expertise to complement long-term growth into advanced automation and system design roles. Throughout my career, I have taken responsibility for fault finding, system diagnostics, commissioning support, and maintaining reliable plant operations in demanding industrial environments. I am known for a disciplined, solutions-driven approach, clear communication, and the ability to remain effective under pressure qualities that support both technical excellence and team leadership. I hold a trade qualification in Instrumentation and Process Control , although I did not complete my degree in electronic engineering to become a formal engineer I do have valuable 3 years formal education towards my degree and also work as a more technical engineer. My PLC experience extends to design-level understanding, allowing me to interpret PLC logic, analyze system behavior, and use PLCs as powerful diagnostic tools. I have worked across Siemens (S7-300, S7-200using TIA Portal),and Schneider Electric Modicon platforms, as well as SCADA systems (WinCC) for basic design, configuration, diagnostics, and HMI integration. My technical background includes electrical systems to trade level and beyond, AC drives (Yaskawa V1000 / Omron, Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 4), pneumatics and electro-pneumatics up to design level, and instrumentation covering temperature, level, pressure, flow, and pH control. I am experienced in installation, calibration, maintenance, and repairs. Alongside my engineering career, leadership and service are central to who I am.My faith informs my values, decision-making, and approach to responsibility. I actively serve in church ministry through worship and missions, contributing as a praise and worship musician, songwriter, and team member. We recently wrote and composed an original worship song which will soon be released by our church(Jesus Revival). Working with musicians and ministry leaders to spread the word of Jesus Christ Through both engineering and ministry, I have developed strengths in teamwork, mentorship, reliability, and servant leadership. Whether leading by example on the plant floor or serving through music and missions, I aim to create environments that are structured, Jesus centered and purpose driven.
