She is also passionate about the ways in which media can be effectively used as an educational tool for the sharing of different stories to enact policy changes and improve people’s lives. She previously interned at Voice of Vietnam Radio in Hanoi, where she was able to build on her interest in the intersection between Media & Communications, and Development. In 2020, she obtained a diploma in Filmmaking from the New York Film Academy. She recently started an Arabic course.
