My proudest lifelong milestone is to be watching my sons grow and develop into independent individuals navigating the challenges life throws at them.

If you could interview anyone, who would it be and why?

Malala Yousafzai. Her story is a powerful reminder that you are never too small or too quiet to challenge the status quo and make a lasting impact.

Her capacity to turn an incredibly difficult personal challenge into a global movement is inspiring!
