What food reminds you of home and why?Dolma (stuffed grape leaves). It is my favorite food and a traditional dish my family makes. What is your motto? The best advice you've ever received?One of the most valuable lessons I learned early on is that the only two things you can truly control are your effort and your attitude. That mindset has shaped the way I approach both life and work—leading with a positive attitude and giving 100% effort in everything I do. It’s a simple but powerful philosophy that keeps me focused, resilient, and always striving to improve.
