Please share your
experiences and business strategies during this COVID crisis?

COVID positive case in my state, everything was shut down including my officeÂ.
The numbers started growing and we are still fighting an unknown virus waiting
for a vaccine. She further states that this year she is focussing on realigning

How would you describe
your journey as a woman entrepreneur?
Dr
Lita states that Âmy journey has been like a dreamÂ. I am dreamer, I believe in
hard, intelligent and smart working to meet my targets. I always imagined creating
new innovations and each day I work towards it. I call myself a Meraki Âsomeone
who puts her heart, soul, creativity and a reflection of herself into her workÂ.
I started my company not just for the purpose of earning money but at the same
time to create impact to bring about a change through Âinnovation which would
benefit the society. Over three and half decades of life I have lived on this
planet, every 10 years has taught me new things. I am still curious like a 10
year old, an active learner like an adolescent and mature like an adult. Each
of these version of me help support my growth as an entrepreneur.
