Her professional journey began in 2018 at Microsoft, where she gained invaluable experience and honed her skills, setting the stage for subsequent accomplishments.
She has recently launched “Aisha Cares”, a series of initiatives targeted at women’s advocacy and empowerment across various ages, sectors and backgrounds.
