My Life of Learning and Inspiration.
I was born on December 26, 1968, in Beaufort, Sabah. I grew up in a big family with six sisters and two brothers. My late father was a police officer, and my mom cared for our home. I learned about hard work and family values from a young age.
I always had a passion for psychology, and I worked really hard to earn my Ph.D. It was a significant achievement in my life.
As a senior lecturer and a counselor, I've spent my career helping others with their problems and teaching. People respect me for this. Additionally, I have expertise in early childhood education, having dedicated a substantial part of my career to understanding and promoting the well-being and development of young children.
I believe that the early years of a child's life are crucial for their development. My work in this field has allowed me to make a positive impact on the lives of many children and their families, helping them build solid foundations for future success.
Apart from my job, I'm a lifelong learner. I believe you can learn something new every day, and I love exploring new ideas.
One of the most beautiful things in my life is seeing my children growing up. It brings me immense joy. Family means the world to me.
I firmly believe that everyone is unique and deserves opportunities. I encourage young people to follow their dreams and maintain a positive outlook.
I've faced challenges, like juggling my studies with taking care of sick relatives. These experiences have taught me resilience and problem-solving.
Looking forward, I want to keep learning, inspire others to do the same, and continue my work in early childhood education. My life journey, coupled with my expertise in this field, shows that with hard work and self-belief, you can achieve great things.
My story teaches us that learning, hard work, and helping others can make a positive impact on the world, especially when it comes to nurturing the potential of our youngest minds. I aim to be an inspiration to my community and beyond, particularly in the field of early childhood education.
