Something About Me
I am very sociable. Smiling and laughing are is my favorite things to do. New experiences and meeting new people thrills me. I readily embrace change and challenges. The only place I don't readily embrace change is in an app. Updates just leaves me "unpleased" most of the times. I have to rewire my mind. I am talking to you Adobe
Learning is a life-long venture for me. Keeping abreast with technology is a deep-seated pleasure of mine. As much as I love travelling, I find more pleasure learning about trends in technology and learning how a new device works.
I still find time to ride my bike in summmer. Prospect Park is the place to be. Swinging in my hammock, seeing and listening to the sounds of nature is the most blissful thing in the world to me.Graphic Art is something I love dearly. I don't think I am that great, but I just love saying that I am a Graphic Artist. My art is not limited to what I can create in Photoshop and Illustrator, but also what I can code. A completed website with its bells and whistles is also my Rembrandt.
A team-player who is a detail-oriented and a creative problem solver. I have a wealth of experience and knowledge from diverse work experiences in education, healthcare, and finance, which highlight my leadership, communication, and critical thinking skills.
