Biggest obstacle you’ve overcome
“I was the first one in my whole family to come to the U.S. on a student visa to pursue higher education, and my first-ever flight was a challenging 18 hours long. As a first-generation college student, I constantly had to prove myself, especially in an environment that lacked opportunities for growth. Despite the challenges, my family’s unwavering support and belief in my potential kept me going. I graduated with an MBA, and today, they’re proud to see me break barriers and achieve what once seemed impossible.”

A word that describes you
“Confident.”
