Interests
I am very passionate about creativity, learning, and exploration. I love diving into non-fiction books, especially on business, psychology, personal growth, and biography. My interest in art and design extends beyond aesthetics. I am drawn to how design shapes experiences, whether in architecture, products, spaces, or branding. I enjoy hands-on DIY projects, finding joy in creating and experimenting. Moreover, travel and adventure fuel my curiosity, exposing me to new cultures, ideas, and perspectives. I also have a deep interest in social media, AI, and technology, always exploring how they transform the way we connect, work, and innovate. Through my work and personal projects, I blend these interests to create meaningful, impactful solutions.
