From Passion to Profession: My Journey in Green Careers
Embarking on a green career journey is a unique and deeply fulfilling experience. For me, it all began in my childhood, when my love for nature was nurtured by my horticulturist father. My outdoor adventures, from annual birthday trips to the arboretum to nature walks at school, deepened a profound connection to the natural world. I didn’t know it then, but these experiences and countless hours spent climbing trees and helping my dad landscape shaped my path toward my current green career.
