Why I chose People Management?

About 2 years ago, I decided to switch my track in my career.

I was a software tester, quality engineer and a software developer in test for 10 years. Basically, I wrote code daily. It gave me feeling of helping our customers on whichever projects I…

It’s review season!

It’s June. That can mean only one thing…summer is here and it’s time to enjoy the outdoors. As I would have wished.

But NO!

It’s time for exciting mid-year reviews at work #sarcasticgrin

It’s Done.

After months of procrastination, I finally resigned.

A lot of people ask me if I am excited for my new role. I think I have only just realised how tired I am.
