Hello Priyanka, Thanks for your reply and for sharing your thoughts, very interesting. I checked out your website, looks great. My research looks at how planning changes over time so since you're very early stage it would be best to interview you at the end of my research to get as much data as possible. Can I get back to you towards the end of my research?
