Bio

A life long lover of languages and stories, who has a bachelor degree in English Language. I'm a translator, writer and educator who's still exploring her career path. I'm looking for a professional home where my long-term interests and skills drive daily motivation.

I'm passionate about

My passion is driven utterly by curiosity. So I'm passionate about anything and everything that sparks my curiosity. And that educates me more than any school can ever does.

An idea worth spreading

I've always been fascinated by how languages can build bridges between people, cultures, and ideas. However, what fascinates me even more, is the fact that our communication can be driven solely by feelings, eye contact, body language and intonation. Even if we don't share the same language, we can share the same heart. This is when we can realize that humans are all related somehow despite all our differences.

Areas of expertise

The TED story

TED has always been the pathway to seeing and listening to people's stories that has different cultures, believes, and experiences. This platform has offered me a chance to get to know other people from the comfort of my own home.
