One of the most inspiring aspects of these talks is learning about the transferable skills that guest speakers have gained from their previous roles.

At ACH, we understand how it feels to be lost and how important it is for individuals to feel supported, especially when navigating new environments. Nehzat’s experience with us was no different.
