MOTIVATION

Through my Third year of studying Construction Management and Quantity Surveying I have gained more insight and knowledge on how Construction Industry is unique. Complimenting that insight has been the passion I have for Construction and its dynamics. I have realised the importance of construction way back when I was in high school as I was always interested in engineering. That is the reason I choose Construction Management and Quantity Surveying and have done my Diploma in Building. The training I did with Robert Bros Construction, Armstrong Construction, Rovert Consulting, Forte Construction and with Batho Ralang Mesebetsi Construction had given me so much in terms of knowledge and experiential. I now believe that these trainings I did will open more opportunities for me, not only in the Construction Industry but to the world of work and hone my skills and learn further in this field.

I am always willing to learn new things and go an extra mile to achieve a goal. I do not need to have everything laid out for me and I am fascinated by how technology can make things easier for the business world. Personally, I am a sincere and honest person who believes in himself.
