My name is Mona, pronounced more like 'Muna' than 'Mona Lisa.' I grew up in Libya, North Africa, and moved around Europe between 2013 and 2016. Eventually, I ended up in Portland, Oregon, during my freshman year of high school. Throughout my life, I've maintained an optimistic outlook, viewing each challenge as an opportunity. I likely inherited this mindset from my parents, who constantly moved me and my siblings despite their efforts to build a solid home base. Growing up, I observed different cultures and engaged in various trends. I mastered the art of interacting with people from diverse backgrounds. As a curious and open-minded individual, I’m eager to impact culture with meaningful creations that disrupt routine.
