KOOKIE, Fantastic Failures, Young Heroes, Entrepreneurs and Total Girl

Published: Monday, 28 January 2019

I featured in some magazine articles, books and on the tv recently. Here are some of them!


This was KOOKIE magazine, where I was interviewed by 10-year-olds Ella and Hiromi, which was released in December 2018.

I was featured in the book “Fantastic Failures”, which was released in the second half of 2018.  The Washington Post wrote about the book here.

 

I was also named as one of "100 extraordinary children from across the world" in the book, "Young Heroes", which was launched on 4 October 2018.
