Amena Mohamed is from Egypt. She shares her amazing and sometimes challenging life journey from childhood to the present as a student in the Erasmus Mundus master's degree program "Service Design Strategies and Innovations."

Sometimes, I have said her story is worth a book, and she is a true inspiration to never give up. Amena reveals details about her early years growing up in Egypt, marriage, children, divorce, and so much more. We discuss her professional path to service design and talk about her reflections on her first year in the Erasmus Mundus program, which took place in Kuldīga, Latvia—her first experience in Europe. And, of course, we talk about the future! Get to know Amena!
