A: Each day is a new day and presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities. Fast adaptability, a positive mindset and great synergy and collaboration within the team are the extra boosters that enhance my day.
Q: What does your day off look like?
A: Spending a portion of the day for me time, just reading a book or exercising (I love body combat), while in between doing mom duties, and always on the hunt to find time to connect with family and close friends. Quality time with loved ones is essential for maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
Q: What’s the toughest part of your job?

Q: Who has been the most influential figure in your career?
A: My mother embodies the dream that I am now realising. She aspired to be an independent, successful career woman, but destiny led her to become a successful full-time mom instead. Despite this, she has always praised and believed in me, never giving up on supporting me, and this spirit has made me who I am today.

Following several events, the manager extended an offer for me to join the sales department, and I have been working in this field ever since.
Q: If you had not taken this career path, what would you have chosen?
A: I would be in the entertainment industry, pursuing roles as either a singer or music director or indulging my other passions as a party planner and travel advisor.
