I'm driven to changemaking because I've experienced
firsthand the transformative power of support and
opportunities. Grateful for the love of my family, the
guidance of teachers, and the encouragement of my
community, I've realized that everyone deserves to thrive.
I firmly believe that with the right support, every
individual can unlock their potential and contribute
positively to society in their own unique way. Paying it
forward, I'm passionate about empowering others to
reach their full potential. This work brings me a deep
sense of purpose and contentment.
