Summary
As a dedicated realtor, I have demonstrated my entrepreneurial spirit by starting my own business (Primrose properties LLC) and by facilitating home ownership within the Somali community, bridging the gap of housing insecurities and advocating for financial empowerment. My commitment extends beyond real estate, as an educator and advocate, I've worked tirelessly to empower Muslim individuals with the knowledge that they can achieve homeownership, thereby addressing housing inequalities. My active involvement in student government at the University of Minnesota reflects my leadership skills and the ability to seek and thrive in positions where my entrepreneurial spirit can flourish. Through these experiences, I've cultivated essential skills such as effective communication, ethical decision-making, and critical thinking, making me an ideal candidate for The Carlson School of Management's business
