This unique upbringing exposed her to a variety of cultural norms and ideas.

She attended the Aga Khan Academies for her early education. Later in life, she pursued higher education and leadership training, enrolling in the Advanced Management Program at Strathmore Business School in collaboration with Spain’s University of Navarra. She also obtained a Diploma in Law from the University of London.
