Hello !

Assalamu Alaikum !

Life is full of opportunities, AlhamdulilAllah.. Since age 15, I have been working in my beloved nation of Saudi Arabia as a female, and never listened to anyone that said "you can't do that!" Making things happen is always an uphill challenge, but making nothing happen is digging your hole deeper daily into an abyss. I always prefer the focus on what is possible, and give my all to support others to reach their goals as well. We are all one nation in this World. And as a humanitarian, the least I can do is to give this one life I have my best shot, with all my loved ones, friends and community, celebrating our achievements.
