Introducing our fourth speaker! Huda Hashmi, a student of MS Education in Lahore College for Women University, being an introvert has always found refuge in reading, writing, painting and music. Huda Hashmi is a dreamer. She dreamt to be a singer. Music became her utmost passion and granted her the freedom and contentment that nothing else could. She went against constrictions and took her passion to a higher level, regardless of the fact that she had no family background in music industry. But success is not a magical land on the end of a rainbow, she ACTed against all odds to pave her path to success. She has transformed her dream into reality by being part of musical season 'Alhamra Unplugged'. #TEDxLCWU #LetsACT #9thDecember2017

Today’s engagement was in D.C. just 5 hours before the news of Texas elementary school shooting. I’m doing my part, but Lord is it enough…Leaning on the strength of my ancestors today as we mourn those whose lives were taken. To all those who find it more comfortable to act like this only happens in “certain communities”, will that be your response if/when it hits home? If not, help us change things before it’s too late! #BeTheChange #ThisMustEnd #HateIsReal #LetsAct #BeforeItsTooLate #LeadersMustLead https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd9MBX-u4hi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
