"A quote that I saw at Hertswood Academy when I moved to the UK was that 'Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I’m possible' and since then that quote has stayed with me."

"From moving to the UK in 2014 barely speaking English, to graduating from King's College London and now doing a Masters at the University of Cambridge is a long journey and I only feel blessed.
