Mbathio, 24, is a Senegalese young entrepreneur whose challenge has always been to study and succeed in her country despite the lack of opportunities. Right after her high school degree, she participated in a 6 month Swedish language training organized by Samres Senegal a Swedish call center company. Subsequently she started working as a call center operator and invested her first salary in creating “Les Voiles De Sokhna” a Muslim clothing E-shop for women. As her new activity was getting famous she eventually quitted her job at the call center to develop her growing business. She also created a crowdfunding program called Gluco80 to help young diabetic patients. She was, in fact inspired by her father who has been living with the disease for 18 years now. She also has a Bachelor’s degree in American literature and civilization and considers the YALI program as a new opportunity to enlarge her partners around the world on both professional and social sides.
