My Life Journey in a nutshell

Childhood

During my school days, I cherished a multitude of friendships and if I could turn back time, those are the moments I'd eagerly reclaim. Hours spent playing cricket without a care in the world, immersing myself in storybooks under the cover of darkness, and reveling in the simplicity of those golden days.

University Life: Shaping My Path and Giving Back

During my time at Shahjalal Science and Technology University, I continued to build upon the foundation of my childhood experiences. While pursuing academic excellence, I also embraced the vibrant university culture, actively participating in sports, especially football. I initiated "Golap-Bandhan Student Association," a club aimed at extending a helping hand to those in need, and became involved with "Art for Change," an organization dedicated to supporting artists and catalyzing positive social impact through the arts.

Post Graduation

Leaving behind the familiar landscapes of Bangladesh, I embarked on an exciting journey to Barcelona, Spain, to pursue my post-graduation. This transition marked not only a change in geography but also a shift in the way I approached education and life.Adapting to a new language and culture presented challenges, but it also expanded my horizons.

Interesting Fact:

Sometimes, the universe has its own plans! I once tried to enroll in a masters program at a business school in Barcelona, but it was beyond my budget and they didn't offer scholarships. Instead, I pursued my studies at a public school. Fast forward two years: that very business school hired me to teach in the master's program I couldn't join earlier. Life has a way of coming full circle!
