Given my BSC in electrical and computer engineering, handling the sales of electrical products sounded decent for a first job. However, it didn't take much time to realise my passion did not really lay on interacting with machines. My second job was in a position of assistant manager in a project where we implemented a reading program for primary school students. After implementing the program for months, we held a graduation ceremony for participating students showcasing the materials and drawings they made along the way to their parents and teachers. After the ceremony ended, one proud father with a big smile looked at his son's drawing and said he had no idea his son was this talented in disbelief of what he just witnessed.He hugged his son tight and vowed to help him however he can. That was IT!  That was my purpose. Helping someone achieve their dreams, helping them fullfil their purpose and most of all having an input in their smile. At my current job where i work as a project coordinator and admin head, i help young innovators and entrepreneurs to realize their dreams of creating and developing their startups that solve problems of our community. Not too bad for a girl from a small town with big dreams....
