got where i am by
Frankly, I haven’t gotten there yet, but attention to detail, speed and the love for advertising got me here. I’m not afraid of rejection, I don’t easily give up, I’m confident and the fact that the industry has no place for cry babies works well for me. I have a tough skin.
FAV GADGET
My 27-inch iMac. Steve Jobs lives.
FAV MOVIE
Cold Mountain and Two and a half Men
FAV MEAL
Sweet potatoes and malakwang (traditional Luo dish).
WORST HABIT
I easily forget names but remember faces even from 20 years ago.
INSPIRED BY
The ambition to ink my name in history books inspires me and the need to have financial freedom drives me.
