I am Serkan Baran, a construction engineer, living in the Netherlands since 2021, working in the renewable energy sector. People defines me as an open-minded problem solver and trustworthy person with strong ethics and positive attitude. A combination of sigma traits, virgo of earth element and INFJ-A personality 😁

My life motto: Be kind and humble, keep honest, treat fairly, change positively, stay peaceful, follow happiness, support others, have joy and love, lean at the moment, reach transcendence..
