IT Pro, PMP, SCS CITBM, Mentor, NUS Masters in ITPM, BSBAA
Friends and people that know me are amazed at my drive to learn, explore, and share knowledge. Here are some quotes from my LinkedIn profile that captures aspects of who I am (or who I am aim to be):
Gem Dela Cruz, MBA, A Right Place for Seniors, Inc.
"I've known Wilson since 1996 and since that time up to now, he never stopped learning. He is the most competent IT Professional I've ever known and he always aims for excellence".
Ramon Melecio, (ex team leader at our call center)
"Wilson is a hands-on Owner / Sales director that mentors everyone under his rank and file ....".
Gil Edeza, Significant Positive Change - Six Sigma
"Wilson is one of the most professional people I have worked with. Practical and always looking to solve your problems"
Samuel Mallare, Infrastructure Architect, and Information Security Professional
"... He is always ready to extend a helping hand."
Wilson Ng, Asian Troubadours Band
" ...He has also good humor, and packs a good personality when delivering speeches or presentations during seminars."
My love for learning all started in my childhood where an elderly Chinese cook for a lumber company that my dad worked in told my parents that I would grow up to be "a success and be someone important".
This notion stuck and it made me believe that I am special, that one day, I will indeed be successful. I will make a difference and help make our world a better place.
But how this could happen?
I was not endowed with physical prowess, neither were we rich as I come from humble background. Considering what i could not be, it quickly dawned on me what I COULD do---develop my mental skills.
And that insight was the key towards fulfilling this 'prophecy'. I came to love learning and to this day, knowledge has been my refuge and strength. The more I learn, the better person I became - gaining more tools to help resolve problems and achieve goals.
