From uncertainty to career in finance
She described the early days as anything but smooth. There were stretches of self-doubt, unexpected setbacks, and moments when she genuinely questioned whether the move would pay off. Rather than gloss over those difficulties, she credited them with shaping her the most.
Over the four years, Sandra built a career in finance and earned her Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation, a qualification that requires significant commitment and study.
In her LinkedIn post, she also spoke of the relationships she has forged and the life she has quietly constructed for herself in her adopted country.
What she values most, however, is not the professional credentials.
"If you ask me what I'm most grateful for, it isn't a job title or a professional milestone, it's the person I've become along the way," she wrote.
