Being part of the first-ever musical at Star was an amazing experience that I will never forget. Having the opportunity to play the lead role challenged me in so many ways. It helped me grow in confidence and also in knowing how hardwork and fun can both come together.

I never thought much about swimming until PE lessons at school, where I discovered my passion and talent for it only to soon win gold in the 100m backstroke and silver in the butterfly at the Emirates International Swimming Cup. I now have secured a spot as well on the swim team.
