Dedication, confidence and motivation, are the three main secrets to my life. The things I imagined in my life, every day I worked hard to achieve them. I completed my Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Fraser Valley in June 2013. During my four year degree, I was working full time as an office manager in a manufacturing corporation. Managing full-time school and full-time work was always a challenge for me, but I was always committed to succeed.

After finishing my Bachelors, I immediately enrolled in Bachelor of Education- Secondary program at the University of British Columbia. Since I was in Grade 4, being a teacher was my favorite after school game. I always use to come home and teach my little brother and younger kids from the neighborhood. They loved coming to me for help in their homework and exams preparations. This teaching became a core of my life and I used to tutor middle school kids during my high school years and my classmates during university years.  I am learner and a teacher; I always love to teach others the new skill, which I learn in my life.

Along with school and work, I always took part in community and multicultural events. This gave me a chance to give back to my community and kept me connected well to my culture. I love to dance on my spare time and started a university dance club, while I was completing my Business degree. I love to explore new places and try innovative thing in life. I am always busy and I love to stay busy, as it keeps me focused towards my goals in life.
