Life’s Ambition: My life ambition is to strike a balance between my personal development and my professional goals, which include traveling the world, to bridge the cultural and sociological disconnect that seems to be increasingly dividing our global community. What are your five-year goals? My five-year goals include utilizing my media and public relations expertise to communicate the importance and vibrancy of our global cultural diversity through a travel lens. In doing so, I aim to encourage and inspire others to venture beyond their comfort zone in an effort to gain a better sense of appreciation for diversity, that our world desperately needs today.
