Fatin Amin has been on an unorthodox route when it comes to garnering experience. As a Journalism graduate from The University of Tampa and a Professional Golf Management Degree holder from the Professional Golfers Career College, she has never sauntered away from embracing new opportunities. Fatin has harnessed various leadership roles throughout her college career, and even took up practical training in a golf course, which was generally male dominated. Breaking barriers and acquiring new knowledge, paved a clear path of success for Fatin. Though life never goes to plan. After going through grief of losing her older brother Haikal from cancer, and multiple rejections of gaining work, post graduate goals became a blur. Her mother Jamilah decided to advise her on using her strong traits to create something on her own. As a primary caregiver for her late brother, and holding such passion for writing, Fatin's mother advised her to create a blog to spread awareness. After much thought, World Footprint, a Kindness Project Initiative was created. It is a project inspired by her brother's act of kindness to spread positivity, break social barriers, and create a safe space for individuals to express themselves. Being highly sports orientated, Fatin has always set her mind to win majors in anything she does. This book is a huge milestone for her, and has open doors for her to finally achieve the goal of creating a foundation in honor of her late brother, to help people wherever she can.
