that beyond my professional endeavors, I am deeply committed to advocating for the inclusive integration of vocational education and adoption awareness. As an adoptee myself, I understand the transformative power of education in shaping lives, and I passionately champion vocational education as a pathway to empowerment for individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those who have experienced adoption.

By intertwining my advocacy for adoption inclusion, I strive to foster a more compassionate and understanding society, breaking down barriers and creating spaces where adoptees can thrive. Through my journey, I aim to inspire conversations that emphasize the importance of education in creating opportunities for all, irrespective of their adoption stories, and advocate for a more inclusive and supportive world for everyone.
