" Discovery, experience, love for the cause and futuristic goals fueled by empathy is what motivates me into doing my work. It is my art and I would do everything to see it polished to it's finest. The skills I would gain from the Millennium Fellowship will make my social impact on social platforms, schools, organisations and other places where I go to do nutritional education, visible, felt, tangible and increase my value while pitching UNAI principles and the SDG movement to them.
I'm really excited and ready to push my competence from what it currently is, to the peak of excellence by collaboratively learning and inventing new ways of creatively crafting out solutions while having fun "
