Bio

I believe I am a student of life who aims to put passion and diligence into every aspect of it. I am aware of and embrace my flaws and I will always be my biggest supporter.

Self belief/confidence can make a big difference in how you navigate through life and face obstacles. I have been in leadership positions throughout my schooling and I volunteered and lived in a village for 2 months tutoring and teaching children in the community. Such experiences have taught me empathy, to lead by example and to motivate people to believe in themselves and their success
