WORKING OUT/BASKETBALL/MEDITATION/LISTENING TO MUSIC

Outside of work, I maintain a balanced lifestyle by engaging in various activities. I dedicate time to physical fitness, adhering to a regular workout routine four days a week, typically after work and during weekends. Additionally, I enjoy recreational basketball sessions with friends once a week, providing an outlet for social interaction and physical activity.

Furthermore, I prioritize mental well-being through daily meditation, viewing it as a ritual to connect with universal energies and promote inner harmony and clarity.

On a cultural level, I have a profound appreciation for music, particularly classics from the 70s and 80s. Country music holds a special place in my heart, stemming from childhood memories of my mother frequently playing it. Moreover, I am drawn to hip-hop music for its ability to blend various musical genres, including elements from older music styles, creating a unique and dynamic sound that resonates with me.
