Who I am and what drives me

Elvis Sia
Diploma Student · JKUAT

Hi! I'm Elvis Sia, an Information Technology graduate from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT), based in Juja, Kenya. I'm dedicated to building practical, real-world tech solutions.

My background spans IT support, networking, database systems, and web development, reinforced through hands-on industrial attachment and Cisco NetAcad certifications. I'm experienced in configuring networks, developing backend-supported systems, and supporting end users in professional environments.

Beyond tech, I'm an active Scout (WOSM), and I speak English, Swahili, Luo, and some German. Always open to learning and new challenges — feel free to reach out!
