Jouana Samia of The Company Didn’t Have a Role Model – So She Became One

“Growing up, I never saw girls who looked like me. Later, I was fortunate to surround myself with the right people to get to where I am today. But I’m still that little girl from Sonnenallee who just loved to dance. I think the less I try to be a role model, the more I can inspire others in my own way. Step by step, I’m happy to see more Arab women in the spotlight, showing other Arab women, girls, and boys that they can say, “That’s going to be me.”
