One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many to choose just one—here are the defining moments of my journey:

1. Advocated for children for over 7 years, standing up for their rights, dignity, and future in environments where their voices are often ignored.

2. Taught for more than 6 years, inspiring and mentoring young minds—not just to learn, but to dream bigger, believe in themselves, and act with purpose.

3. Presented my own research abroad, in front of people I had never met, in a country I barely knew—navigating language, culture, and fear, just to share my voice and vision.

4. Made a life-altering, high-risk decision in my 30s, stepping away from the safe and familiar to pursue a path that aligned with purpose and passion.
