Hi Asmita,

It is quite delightful to see somone with a different career interest. Appreciate it. Try honing your comprehension skills by writing blogs and focus on weaving articles in an eloquent way. There are courses that will take you there but you need a vocabulary like Shashi Tharoor. Work hard on that.

All the best
