Hi there!
My name is Shaibu Ibrahim. (Call me Shai, but I am not shy).
I am a Senior Electrical Engineer with over a decade of combined experience in power generation (thermal and renewable), transmission, and distribution. In my free/leisure time, I love sharing memories with my family, playing soccer, watching comedy, volunteering, writing blogs, and connecting with like-minded individuals.
