Looking for inspiration, listen to music, window shopping, play basketball, watch movie, photography

Outside of work, I find enjoyment and relaxation in several hobbies. Listening to music is a source of inspiration for me, whether it's exploring new genres or revisiting old favourites. I also like to go window shopping, not just for buying things, but to observe trends and styles that spark my interest.


Playing basketball is a passion of mine; it's a great way to stay active and competitive while connecting with friends and teammates. Watching movies allows me to unwind and immerse myself in different stories and genres, expanding my perspective and sparking creativity.


Photography is another hobby I am passionate about. Capturing moments and scenes and people through my camera lens allows me to express my creativity and explore different perspectives. Whether it's landscapes, portraits, or everyday moments, photography is a medium through which I can document and share experiences.

These hobbies not only provide me with relaxation and enjoyment but also contribute to my personal growth and creativity outside of professional responsibilities.
