Guiding principles
I understand that each moment presents me with a choice in how I perceive, feel, or respond to it resulting in a clear path of understanding the situation and reacting to it leading to the best consequences, whether good or bad. I connect, accept, and respect the people around me with great compassion and an open mind.
How has Covid changed your job?
Covid has not affected my job journey as I enrolled in a 3-month internship less than a month after my graduation. Post my 3 months, I was fortunate to have acquired a full-time job as an account executive at an award-winning agency that has opened a path of wide opportunities, as well as personal and professional growth.
Side hustle
Living in a fast-paced technological era where every skill is needed for continuous growth has offered me an opportunity to explore my passion for helping others a year and a half ago. I have begun my private tutoring journey teaching kids aged between 9-12 in their education and basic studies, which had resulted in self-growth and fulfilment.
