Freelancers typically bring a range of innate character traits combined with life experiences, to forge their unique role in the world. But what if that life experience is an incredible story of multi-country immigration, parental sacrifice, culture shock, and personal transformation?
In the case of today's guest Lumjana Shehu, it means you want different choices for the next generation in your home country, and so you work to create skills and opportunities for young people.
Helping young Albanians develop the digital expertise they need, to have real choices to create a viable career and income where they live, strengthens the local economy and builds hope for the future, on an individual and societal level.

The next generation of global citizens will change the world for the better, and it's a privilege to share Lumjana's powerful story.
