All that I do apart from being a HR?

I’ve always been a curious individual, and thanks to my mom, I’ve never known stage fright. From dancing in front of hundreds of people at the age of 5 to now hosting events, training people, and teaching kids, I’ve embraced every opportunity to be on stage. In my free time, I enjoy teaching school children and conducting corporate training sessions for startups. As an extrovert, I love staying connected with people and constantly learning from them.
