HEART TO HEART Journey to Success
As a child, I spent countless hours in front of the TV watching surgeries on one of the most famous Egyptian channels, 'Houras.' Despite my vision problems, I dreamed of becoming a doctor or a pharmacist, and I fought hard for that dream. When I grew up, I became a pharmacist after a long journey, but I soon realized that opportunities in my field were scarce. Undeterred, I decided to shift my career temporarily to teaching chemistry, physics, biology, and mathematics while continuing to search for opportunities in my field. After three years of teaching, I finally found an opportunity to work as a pharmacist in one of the top organizations in Qatar. But I didn't stop there. I started studying PharmD to shift my career from being a pharmacist to a clinical pharmacist. I am also preparing for the American Board Certificate in Oncology, which will open many doors for me in prestigious hospitals. Through my journey, I have learned that hard times often lead to the greatest moments of my life. I believe that tough situations build strong people in the end. That's why I keep going and never give up on my dreams. In addition to my successful career in the medical field, I am also a dedicated member of Toastmasters. I am currently the VPE of the Qatar Mothers Toastmasters Club, where I use my public speaking skills to inspire others and help them grow. Toastmasters has been an incredible journey for me, and I am grateful for the opportunities it has provided me with.
My story is a true testament to the power of hard work, dedication, and perseverance. I hope to continue inspiring others to pursue their dreams and never give up on themselves.
