Overview
About Me
Every now and then, there comes a time when you need a break from routine work: a change of environment, some time away from the indoors, maybe even a little fun - well, I'm the person who makes that happen!
I used to design corporate retreats to minimize gaps between leadership and employees, creating lasting bonds and bringing cultural change in organizations. My work was right up my alley as it catered to my love for traveling and meeting exciting new people. But there was a problem: the experiences I designed were restricted to just corporates. So I came up with a solution and named it Art of Travel.
If I were to pride myself on a single attribute, it would be my curiosity to know more. It's the thing that fuels my interest in reading, travel, and technology. It's the reason I am competent at research; its why I'm into solving problems; my curiosity is essentially what drove me to become a psychologist and now an entrepreneur.
