As an only child, I spent much of my time as a young boy finding ways to entertain myself. My creativity expanded rapidly because of this, often spending hours producing structures with Lego and building earthen dams in our backyard. Educated at an international school, I was exposed to diverse topics that dispelled many of the myths and mysteries
Prior to attending University as a Civil Engineering student, there were plenty of natural disasters, including earthquakes, and flooding that stole human lives and left destruction and havoc for the survivors in my country, not only due to the strength of those disasters, but simply due to the weakness of our structures, including our buildings, bridges, roads and etc. I was obsessed with that immense toll in our country that was due to a simple negligence and lack of knowledge. Consequently, I

My parents were astonished with my decision to build a career in the field of computers, because by then I already joined my under graduation course with civil engineering as my major. Their main concern is, if I will be able to excel in computer science with a major in a non-computers program. Why not? The world’s first programmable computer was invented by a civil engineer, Konrad Zuse. His work on Plankalkul (Plan calculus) and an attempt to devise an algorithmic language for the first time ever
