Accomplishments
- My athletic journey began at the age of 10 when I participated in various sports, including volleyball, basketball, swimming, and athletics. From 2015 to 2018, I had the privilege of being a high-performance athlete, proudly representing my region and country as both a swimmer and a volleyball player in national and international events.
- During my final years of high school education, my interest in diplomacy and conflict resolution blossomed. This passion drove me to actively participate in several Model United Nations events at the national level during 2018 and 2019. Through these experiences, I honed my communication skills, fostered teamwork, and developed effective problem-solving abilities.
