  • I believe in work life balance very much as its the most important aspect to keep self-motivated. I am a morning person who spends time doing Yoga followed with a brisk walk. This helps me start my day enthusiastically. Most importantly, I would love to travel and ensure I plan a trip at least once in 4 months in order to get unwind from all the daily hassles.
