You started your journey as a performer in 2014. After being in the industry for over a decade, how would you describe it?
When I first started, there were no monetization options, businesses, or agencies to handle social media. Social media accounts didn't exist, and it wasn't considered a commercial activity. However, over the past decade, I've witnessed the tremendous growth of social media as a platform. Nowadays, it serves as a primary source of income for many individuals of all ages.
Social media has no age restrictions, and people discuss a wide range of topics. Every niche has its audience, and I have observed the remarkable growth of social media over the last decade, which has been truly inspiring.
I firmly believe that social media is here to stay and not just a passing trend. The digital era is firmly established, and I am confident in the stability of my job.
So besides being an actor, you are also a mom, how do you manage your career and personal life sharing what a day in your life looks like?
I believe the primary barrier I had to overcome to the best of my ability was the feeling of mom guilt. It was essential for me to conquer this obstacle, especially with two young children.
