“Aik is definitely the most talkative. He manages to communicate with everyone no matter where I move him.” This was my second grade teacher’s comment during a parent-teacher conference. Indeed I developed the art of communication at a young age. I was able to converse comfortably with anyone at any given time. Joining the school debate team, impromptu oratory competitions, school media club, working as a youth trainer, radio jockey and finally a double major in Global Studies and Communication refined my ability even further. Throughout, I was able to pick up the core values of being a successful leader - effective communication.
