How does your usual day look like?

I set my alarm for 7:30am and leave for the office around 8:20am, heading towards Moorgate. During my commute, I usually take care of personal errands and mentally prepare for the tasks ahead.

​

At 9 am, I begin my day by checking emails and reviewing morning meetings. In the afternoon, I prefer to allocate time to projects that require concentration, writing, or creativity. The nature of these projects can vary greatly, but I often collaborate with graphic designers, film producers, and writers.

By around 5 pm, I wind down and sometimes meet up with friends for a drink in the city or attend networking events with my colleagues from work.
