A young lady who loves to smile and laugh, get close to nature, and being herself for all the time. Passionate, ambitious, enthusiastic, energetic, happy go lucky me young lady who likewise a go-getter. She never stops endeavors to make her dream come true and she always tries new things. She has a colossal of the inspiration list to complete and she loves challenges.

She jumps at the chance to go abroad for work purposes, and she remains her record of flying out the nation each and every month since 2016. She loves traveling because it gives her an opportunity to explore, expand, empower, exchange and enrich herself with the differences of cultures, social studies, economics, and a deeper understanding of life.

She also likes to spend her time with the music (especially playing ukulele, piano and singing and sometimes you may find me dancing while she's studying, don't misunderstand me, I'm not crazy, but I just enjoy my own life with the music), reading books and sports. She practices meditation as it helps her concentrate all alone needs and needs.

Oh yes, part of the reason where she practices meditation is because it helps her to calm her mind as she has mild ADHD and she'll be quite lively. Anyhow, she transforms her vitality into work recently, so she works a great deal and she truly appreciates keeping herself occupied with important works. She is fearless and she believes in faith, love and hope (*I'm a big believer in love, because I believe that you spread your love/positive vibes to the people around you, you will bring happiness to the rest of the society and I love doing it. That may be part of the reason I'm involved in NGO, because I want to bring hope to the people, and always believe in faith.)

Remember, starts everything with LOVE, and keep that FAITH in you and HOPE for the best.
