Being born in a village with no school during his childhood, but he grew up with his older brothers and sisters who inspired and stimulated him to enjoy learning, even though attending a remote school themselves.

He was an education-obsessed boy, a competitive student from primary to secondary school, committed to studying well in his field of study at college, and eager to contribute to his country through the profession he studied at college, but pressures from diverse circumstances forced him to follow a path in which he could not find Joy and fulfilment from within. He now believes that he is at the right place and at the right time to fight for what motivates him from within. This is who Hayu Nagessa Godana is.
