●  Seven Mountains Volunteering  Campaign:  I climbed Mount Toubkal, Morocco's highest peak, as part of the Seven  Mountains initiative, a charity campaign  that raised money for kids with cancer.  In addition to the physical challenge, I  obtained sponsorships from companies,  which greatly aided in the overall  fundraisings. As I worked with a diverse  team to plan the event, and interact with  donors, this experience improved my  organizational and leadership abilities.  Along with raising money for cancer  patients, the campaign also raised  awareness of childhood cancer. This  event strengthened my dedication to  social causes and improved my ability to  work under pressure while staying  focused on the goal

●  Bank Internship:  I completed my internship at Capital  Bank, where I obtained practical  experience in financial and banking  operations. Working together with  different departments to ensure efficient  daily operations and customer  interactions, this role allowed me to  improve my communication skills
