In 2022, while I was a university student, I led a community initiative in Siem Reap designed to support local entrepreneurs navigating the economic uncertainty created by COVID-19 and the rapid emergence of e-commerce in Cambodia. As more businesses moved online, limited access to knowledge about business sustainability, financial management, legal rights, and responsible business practices left many vulnerable to risks.

I led the development and coordination of the campaign, bringing together students and community members to make essential knowledge more accessible to local entrepreneurs as they adapted to a changing economy.
