Social Impact Journey

When I blew out the candle on my 26th birthday, I promised myself I would finally live my own life arc. Somehow, that led to quitting my full-time job in 2025 to focus fully on social impact and community work, and honestly, it became the best year of my life. Now, I’m trying to build a version of that life that’s both meaningful and sustainable.
