Her strong interest in advocating for female empowerment and gender equality stems from a previous career, which comprised many barriers due to both her young age and gender. This passion led her to her being a par of the UNAAWA in a volunteer member capacity, and now to her sitting on the Gender Equality Committee as Event Manager.
