Summary
I'm someone who genuinely loves helping others. Whether it's a customer looking for the perfect item, a colleague needing a hand, or a client seeking advice, I thrive in environments where I can make someone's day a little easier. Fluent in English, Farsi and Pashto, I love connecting with people from all walks of life and bringing positivity to everything I do. I've worked in customer service, retail, and even dipped my toes into the legal field – all of which have helped me grow into a versatile, team-oriented individual who's always ready for the next challenge.
