My Passion
Quick confession: I’m a nerd!
People who know me somewhat say i’m techy, some call me calories counter, bookworm, CEO and more.
Those who know me really well however, know that beyond all the above, i’m just a girl who wants to make the world a better place. This I do by offering socially responsible business services, training speaking, coaching and through the non profits I’m involved with.
I aspire to be a UN women consultant and a TED and TEDx speaker to make a case for the economic and physical empowerment of women and children.
I am often eager to teach and speak at programs that will not only motivate women but leave them with a skill that is useful in life.
