My name is El Hadji Amadou DIOP and I was born on August 3, 1985 in Dakar.
Passionate about technology and design from an early age, I started working as a freelancer very early on for family reasons thanks to the โMicrosoft Student Partnerโ program which introduced me to VB.Net programming. When I obtained my BAC L2 in 2007, because I was unable to pursue technical or scientific studies at that time at Cheikh Anta Diop University, I enrolled in the English department to study American Civilization and Literature. During my 2nd year, I benefited from family support to register for a DTS in Multimedia at the Institut Supรฉrieur d'Informatique de Dakar in 2009.
Two years later, I validate the DTS; and on recommendation start a stage at Ceginus Web Marketing as customer and administrative support.
A year later, an IBM contractor based in Nigeria contacted me to manage support for IBM employees in Senegal. Today, after more than 8 years of administration and support of IT services and systems, I work on my own account by offering my support and consulting services to local businesses while getting involved in community projects and entrepreneurship.
Since middle school I have always been oriented towards community and association projects which have pushed me to apply with humanitarian structures such as Empire des Enfants and Village Pilote (2006-2012) and also in the technological field with Microsoft (2007-2012), NASA (2015-2017). Outside my working hours, I am a multiplatform gamer (PC, XBOX, PlayStation), I practice karate and taekwondo; as well as sports like basketball, swimming and football.
I devote a lot of time to online monitoring, as well as to reading articles/reviews as well as a few โbest-sellerโ books; but I spend more time listening to and watching audio books and documentaries on YouTube and other Audiovisual services.
My quote and slogan in life is, "It always seems impossible until it's done." by Nelson Mandela.
