BIOGRAPHY:
From an early age, Tanya was involved in politics. While she always had a clear idea of the type of things she wanted to be doing with her life, she did not have a detailed plan of how to get there. Tanya chose to follow her passions and tried out a number of jobs, some difficult and not the best fit. However, Tanya embraced this "trial and error" process, recognizing that as long as you are continually learning, even if that means dealing with adversity in a job that is not the perfect fit, it's not a wasted opportunity.
