Very impressive background in our club, isn’t it?😏 - Let’s give some information about Zhadra, if you still don’t know her very much. Professional psychologist, sporty girl and we witnessed her sport abilities during Summer Olympic Games where she was absolutely the Best Woman Athlete and even better than some boys (not revealing exactly their names😏), according to guests and members feedback mostly they remember Zhadra’s speeches and her messages always impress and inspire them to change their lives and do what they want as Zhadra did. She is a good negotiator, sober and wise part of our Club with huge responsibilities and desire to make our Club better place! Studying in two universities and meanwhile work and teach students, be a part of Leadership Team and also give psychological help to people this is all about Zhadra! Maybe her Aiesec experience gave her so much energy and time management, but from all procrastinators, Zhadra, we don’t know how you are doing this!🙄 #almatytoastmasters #spotlightseries
