Philosophy of Life

She is a Worshiper of the universe, a firm believer of GOD and it’s power. She is also a mentor, caretaker for my family, friends, peers and a peace lover. Bad at drawing, good cook to some extent not professional, very patient and thankful to her parents for everything she has been showered with. Share and Care, is her personal favorite philosophy which she just not preaches but practice.

"It was very supportive and collaborative effort, we all find a safe place to talk openly sometimes even we discussed personal, there was so much to learn exchange made BFFs out of work no competition just feeling of upliftment. It was great, minimum we can contribute back what we are learning. Also made so many connections and feel overwhelmed with the thank you messages . Heartfelt gratitude to the platform it gave me confidence ,a place outside my work where I can work and share , learn."
