Humans of Skills for Change: Ruth Mengistu
My Story
I am an MBA in Marketing and International Business and have worked in different roles like Business Development Manager and Business Analyst. I came to Canada in April, 2019 leaving behind a well settled life and all my loving relatives. I was a very well informed immigrant and didn’t come with any false hopes. I accepted the fact that the future is unexpected and without any guarantee. Challenges were meant to be there as I was coming out of my comfort zone but I implemented a simple philosophy- life will be beautiful if you embrace the unknown. And thats what happened. I got an opportunity to work with Skills for Change very soon and since then there is no looking back. In a very short span of 7 months in this beautiful country, I have had some ups and downs, swing between hope and despair, darkness to sunshine but I have cherished them all and have made good memories.
