  • Project Management and Marketing

    • 2008 - 2009

    Project Management captivated the organised aspect of my personality, it's delightful and always rewarding to see projects to fulfillment. Managing various elements and their unique timing to allow a moment of synergy and completeness is akin to conducting, or at least in my mind. It's musical!
