What has been your most important lesson from the PWG program?
I met many different women and learned a lot from them. I got an insight
into issues that women in Canada face. More importantly by participating in
inspirational workshops by PWG I felt myself empowered and encouraged to
further develop myself and achieve my professional career goals.
What made you want to be a part of IMPACT 360?
I
appreciate all the support and the assistance that received I from DFS and want
to contribute back with my participation in the IMPACT fundraising event. I
believe this project will have a significantly positive impact on many
women, their personal and professional development.

If you could share a piece of advice to other women looking for a career, what would you tell them?
My advice to other women would be: The journey of life is not meant to be feared, it
is meant to be traveled and enjoyed. Hence, keep trying never
lose hope and keep moving consistently on the paths of self improvement and
development cause you never know what grand is coming your way.

wanted to be a part of Impact cause I believe "There's no substitute for rolling up your sleeves and working
with the people who can make a difference. They get the benefit of your
participation and you gain a direct understanding of the real problems and
potential solutions, which makes you a more informed giver.”
What inspires you?
My
inspiration is my dad, who left us alone in this journey of life years ago, but
left some very important principles of life for us. One of which I keeping
telling my kid too. He always use to say Education, learning are the most
valuable treasures, that can make you grand in all aspects but no body can ever
steal them from you.
