Interests

Apart from learning about new web software development Technologies, I enjoy brainstorming brand management, business development and promotional ideas subconsciously when I am travelling or not literally engaged doing something. Being a business graduate, I am also always interested in brainstorming potential business ideas.

I am a tech gadget geek. Tech hardware videos are my most watched videos on YouTube. My interests in tech gadgets were the main reason I was hired at Maxwell Direct while working full-time as Market Research Associate.

I am an avid gamer. I cannot remember at least one whole week in my life when I was not playing some videogame so far in my life regardless of the device medium. I am on a hiatus from playing Fifa Mobile where I am one of the admins of a top 30 league called Minnesota Divided FC.

I am a positivist which is why I also often enjoy watching and talking about motivational philosophies. Rhonda Byrne's The Secret & The Power are one of my biggest influences.

I am not a movie buff but have a few favorites such as The Pursuit of Happyness.

Also, being a techie, I can't help but consider Mr. Robot, HBO's Silicon Valley, and Halt and Catch Fire to be one of my most favorite TV shows as well.

I am a fitness geek. I never missed a single day of workout ever since I got back to my routine in 2019. I have been actively successfully losing weight while raising muscle mass.
