RESEARCH

Thus far my research interests have been varied (though I am a little partial to Music and Dance, they being my pet peeves) and I strive hard to keep it that way. This keeps the learner in me keen and enables growth not only professionally but also provides a new insight into life.

On every research project and with every research associate I have not only learned something new in psychology but have learned something new about myself, my team and the world at large.

Research is my teacher and I am extremely passionate about it.
