reading

I have go-to genres when it comes to reading. It is either a murder mystery or psychological thriller or something that reflects our human race. In reference to the latter, I have read couple of books written by authors such as Malcolm Gladwell. I am currently reading 'Where the Crawdad's Sing' and simultaneously scouting for my subsequent pick up.

Additional Information

I am primarily looking for full-time position but also open to temporary and contract positions, depending on the opportunity. I am seeking a company that renders opportunities for innovation and growth. To that end, I am seeking to join an enterprise that operates on a growth and development mindset.
