"Work with variety interests me which may even at times be out of
my direct domain. I personally feel the more one knows even if not
in-depth about everything always helps to produce work which is
more holistic and whatever the end result always reflects that.
It keeps me interested to continue picking up newer skill sets and
newer technology and see how I can apply it in my direct work."
