Short Bio: My entrepreneurial journey began not merely as a desire to earn a living, but as a deep-seated passion to solve problems and serve others meaningfully. With limited resources but a clear vision, I started small, fuelled by faith, resilience, and an insatiable hunger to grow. Along the way, I encountered setbacks, rejections, and moments of doubt; however, each challenge imparted valuable lessons. I’ve come to realise that entrepreneurship extends beyond profit – it’s about purpose, impact, and people. Although this journey is still unfolding, I remain committed to upholding my values, building with integrity, and utilising my gifts to make a positive difference.
