ABOUT NASIRA AZIZ
Empathy, compassion, and curiosity are my superpowers, allowing me to foster profound collaborations and connections with my clients, friends, and colleagues. My career advising revolves around conducting employment workshops for newcomer women, equipping them with essential job skills, and empowering them through career guidance and mentorship to launch successful careers in Canada. Working predominantly with immigrant women fuels my passion, motivating me to approach each workday with the same enthusiasm as I did on my very first day in this role.
