Hi, 
Thank you for visiting my profile. 
My friends call me Meri, so please feel free to do the same. 

📚📚📚 Here is my story📚📚📚📚

📌I was born and raised in Bosnia and Herzegovina. 
When I turned 20, I  landed a job in The Green Zone in Baghdad, Iraq. 

📌I spent 4 years there working to put myself into school and move to the USA. 
The contract called for 84 hours/week. It was a blast - literally! 

📌While in Baghdad, I worked at the New Embassy Compound (NEC), the largest US Embassy in the world.

📌I moved to the States in 2011 and first lived in Honolulu. I moved to Norfolk, VA, in 2019 and shortly after I resided in the beautiful MD - DMV area. I am currently located in Orlando, FL. 

📌I was brave enough to start my own business in the summer of 2022, and I honestly can say I live the "American Dream." 

➡️A kid who survived the Bosnian war and did not have toothpaste in the '90s (but somehow maintained to smile) is 
🙏ready to serve you NOW.

I specialize in helping small & mid-size medical practices/groups recruit 
clinical and support staff.

I often serve as an advisor on 
recruiting, hiring, and onboarding

Kumud, thank you for sharing these very important historical lessons.

🚀  To me ... 
~ a rejection is set up for resumption 
~ a setback is a precursor for a comeback 
~ a NO gets us ready for a N.O. - "New Opportunity" 

All of these moments do not define us as failures. Instead, these "failings" affirm our vision in, conviction in, faith in, and commitment to our dreams. 

These hurdles are necessary for new heights of experiences to be innovated, formed, and realized. 🌱

Some of the world’s greatest innovations were born from rejection.

Visionaries who were underestimated went on to reshape entire industries.
🚗 Toyota rejected a mechanic’s new design idea- he built Honda instead.
🐂 Ferrari dismissed advice from a tractor maker- he built Lamborghini.
🏎️ Lamborghini refused to fund an engineer’s carbon-fiber project- he built Pagani.
💻 HP turned down a computer idea from their own engineer- he co-founded Apple.
🎮 Nintendo walked away from a Sony engineer’s disc-console concept- he built PlayStation.
📼 Blockbuster laughed at a founder looking to partner- he built Netflix.
Rejection isn’t a dead end. It’s a redirection.

Sometimes the “no” you hear today becomes the reason you build something the world can’t ignore tomorrow.

If you’re working on something bold and people don’t get it yet…
Keep going.

What’s one rejection that pushed you toward something better? Share your story below. 
Repost as someone might need this reminder to keep going. Thanks!
