Free RegistrationMy inspiration in business stems from a deep passion for social justice. I an French, Indian from Tanzania, born in Switzerland and raised in New York. Both of my parents worked at the United Nations and fostered a depp sense of social justice in my sister and I. My multicultural background, along with my parents passion for serving underprivileged populations inspired me to become a forensic psychologist working with an often "forgotten" population.
How do you stay motivated?I stay motivated by keeping myself informed and consistently fighting for social justice in any way I can. I make it point to be grateful for everything I have, every opportunity I've been given and every challenge I've faced. I follow and gain inspiration from those doing the hard work even when no one is watching. I also try to keep myself surrounded by people who share the same values as me.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would take a vacation firstly. I would spend the rest on investing in my business and potentially starting an after school program for at-risk youth.
