Now for the long(er) version-
Is it strange to start an 'about me' thanking your school and parents for what today is your passion and, career path?
Absolutely not. Give credit where it's due.
Being born and brought up in Dubai, English was my first language; by my parents and school.
👉🏽What started off as weekly spelling tests when I was between the age group of 5-8, grew into me becoming an avid reader, which finally transpired into attaining an A grade in my GCE O Level examination and 82% in my TOEFL.
👉🏽Fun fact: French was my second language and Arabic was my third.
During the summer hols, I was lucky to have travelled the world; I've been to London, Paris, Kenya, Belgium, Bangkok, Singapore, Malaysia, Florida, New York and a couple others I'd need to surf through my albums to remember.
Right before I graduated, I knew I had to take on challenges that would help me push the comfort zone envelope:
> I conceptualized, managed and ran two-yearly charity concert-style events the same title; 'Cambridge For Charity' in 2009 and 2010. The charities we donated to were The Red Crescent Society in 2009 and The Dubai Autism Center in 2010.
> I attended the Global Young Leaders Conference 2010, held annually in USA. I was amongst 500+ of the brightest minds globally.
After a gap year, I went on to pursue my undergraduate degree at Northeastern University and graduated in 2016 December with a BSc. Marketing and Management.
👉🏽While I was studying, I was very active within communities, at school and outside
I volunteered via Big Sister Association, Boston for over 2 years
I danced on stage at almost every Nataraj and Dance For Me
I attended sessions hosted by the NU Entrepreneur's Club
I travelled to parts of California, Arizona, Illinois, Wisconsin, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine, New York.
It was an extremely fulfilling, opportunity-grabbing, exciting, deep-learning experience at Northeastern University in Boston, while I was there 2011-2016.
In 2018, I moved to India, and, it was quite the change! Since moving here and writing this today (Jan 2020)...
👉🏽I've worked in eCommerce, Fintech and, Design using my skills to build their brand and strengthen communications.
