3. INCLUSION RESPECT MY VALUES INTEGRITY True progress comes when everyone, regardless of their background or identity, feels welcome and valued. Inclusion is not just about diversity; it’s about creating environments where different perspectives are actively sought and respected. Whether in my personal projects, or in professional spaces, I prioritise creating opportunities for others to participate fully and authentically. By fostering inclusive environments, I aim to empower individuals to bring their whole selves, unlocking their potential for innovation and collaboration. Respect is fundamental to how I interact with others. I strive to honor the inherent dignity of every individual, whether in a leadership role, a team setting, or personal relationships. For me, respect means listening deeply, valuing other people's time, contributions, and ideas, and recognising the humanity in each person I meet. It's about understanding that everyone has their own story and journey, and my actions and words should reflect this understanding, fostering mutual trust and strong relationships. Integrity is the foundation of everything I do. I am committed to being honest and transparent in my actions and decisions, whether working on a business project or supporting my peers. Integrity is about aligning my values with my actions, even when it’s difficult or inconvenient. It requires taking responsibility for my mistakes and always striving to do what is right, even when no one is watching. This value ensures that I consistently contribute to environments built on trust and ethical principles.

6. TECH WELLNESS EMPOWERMENT I have a keen interest in customer experience and tech consulting in that field. I’m working on to designing skills development programs, I’m passionate about creating solutions that help people thrive in an increasingly connected world. I want to take my skills in collaboration with many great minds to be innovative in the tech space and challenge my country to new heights. Wellness, for me, is about nurturing the mind, body, and spirit. I value a balanced lifestyle that allows me to thrive in all areas of life. Becoming a part-time Pilates instructor aligns with my commitment to well-being, as I aim to share the benefits of mindful movement and help others find balance and strength in their own lives. I have a children's brand, iNdima Kids, focuses on representation and diversity during early childhood development.
