Ajeesh, a valuable professional with great culinary skills, passionate and eager to develop his skills further and above all a very gentle, polite and inspiring personality. His key qualities which makes him a bolder than others are: 1. Commitment. 2. Creativity. 3. Intuition. 4. Leadership. 5. Mentorship. I wish him tonnes of luck.
