"With every profession there are positive and negative experiences that one may encounter throughout their career, however I incorporated the negative experiences for my career enhancement and personal wellbeing. This has made me love my line of work and I thoroughly enjoy the fast pace creative environment that I have to work in. I love the challenges and fulfillment that come with brainstorming for new projects and keeping myself well acquainted with the latest in the market."
"I LOVED the challenge of going through the steps of hiring a team, establishing procedures and guidelines for editorial, creative and production oriented workflows was a great learning experience. I also enjoy the sense of accomplishment after so many painstaking hours spent on producing elements of a book, then finally seeing the printed piece is enriching. The managerial duties is what I sometimes hated as it sometimes interfered with what I was trying to accomplish at any given moment."
