Cooking


A creative and calming hobby that enhances my patience, attention to detail, and ability to follow processes precisely. It also helps me maintain work-life balance and brings out my passion for learning and experimentation skills that translate well into my professional life.

Nature walks (for work-life balance)

Nature walks are an important part of my work-life balance routine. Spending time outdoors helps me  to clear my mind, and return to work with renewed focus and energy. It’s a simple yet powerful way to maintain mental well-being, reflect on priorities, and stay grounded. I find that regular walks in nature not only boost my productivity but also enhance my creativity and decision-making at work.
