Although I wasn't able to find the time to follow up on all the conversations I had with Richard, I did find that he provided very clear and honest feedback. I hope to continue again in the future when I am able to find the time.

As already explained in my message to Richard, I came to realize that direct interaction via calls are crucial for me.

It was good and really helpful but as my project ends I don't think I'll need it any longer
