- A brief bio:
"From a young age, my passion for learning and exploration led me to dive into various clubs and activities. This early exposure ignited my love for STEM and creativity. Volunteering, participating in creativity clubs, and attending seminars fueled my journey. Throughout middle and high school, I excelled in STEM, participating in competitions like ISEF and a cultural exchange programs. My interest in sustainable development (SDGs) grew, leading to involvement in youth awareness camps and environmental initiatives like beach cleanups. In university, I pursued mechanical engineering while maintaining my commitment to SDGs. Over the past four years, I've achieved numerous first-place awards in local and international engineering competitions and exhibitions. I also got interenships with international companies like Siemens. for several times i got recognitions from the university presidency and Prime Minister that highlight my dedication and achievements. Beyond STEM, I've actively contributed to SDG initiatives, participating in COP27, LCOY conferences, and projects with UNICEF and the US Embassy. My ability to balance academic excellence with a strong commitment to social and environmental causes demonstrates my well-rounded approach to life."

- Please share your biggest wins as an SDGs advocate
"As an SDGs advocate, I'm proud to have contributed to significant initiatives focused on climate change awareness and youth empowerment. My involvement in the Summer of Our Youth Initiative, alongside collaborations with government ministries, UNICEF, and the United Nations, has enabled me to reach a wide audience and promote sustainable practices. Participation in COP27 and the LCOY conferences over the past three years has provided invaluable opportunities to engage with global leaders and contribute to critical discussions on climate action. Additionally, my work in awareness campaigns and workshop facilitation has empowered youth to become active agents of change in their communities. These experiences have not only strengthened my commitment to the SDGs but have also equipped me with the skills and knowledge necessary to drive positive impact on a global scale."
- Outside of your SDGs advocacy work, what do you enjoy doing?
I enjoy exploring the outdoors through traveling, exploring new cultures, hiking, camping, and gardening. When I'm indoors, I find fulfillment in creative pursuits like reading and photography. I also love connecting with others by attending social events and staying active through gymnastics.
