Meet Tyrian: A Young Leader with Big Dreams
Picture this: a senior in university, balancing exams with big ideas. In 2018, Malaysian student Tyrian co-founded her first NGO to help underprivileged urban youth gain access to education and develop employable skills. 🎓✨
Through targeted mentorship and hands-on training, Tyrian’s team opened doors for young people who often feel stuck. They organized workshops on resume-building, digital skills bootcamps, and one-on-one coaching sessions—all designed to boost confidence and unlock new opportunities. 🚀
But when COVID-19 hit, the NGO had to close its doors. The pause wasn’t in vain: it gave Tyrian a front-row seat to the challenges youth face during crises and showed her how vital adaptable support is. 🔍
Now, Tyrian is on a mission to scale her impact. She’s exploring digital mentorship platforms, forging partnerships with local businesses, and designing community outreach programs to reach more young people—no matter where they live. 🌐🤝
"I realized that even small doses of guidance can spark big change," Tyrian says. "It’s like helping someone level up IRL—unlocking skills, building confidence, and opening doors." 🌟
Keep an eye on this changemaker as she designs fresh ways to expand access to opportunity for youth across Malaysia and beyond. The journey is just beginning! 🎉
