Congratulations Poojan and Jimmy!

Congratulations to Poojan Dhanesha (AS 1) and Jimmy Alburquerque (AS 1) on being our February Members of the Month!

Poojan Dhanesha  
Where are you from?
Incredible India it is! I was born and brought up amidst the cultural hotchpotch of Asia.

 What do you do in your free time?
I explore the city, make friends with new people and cook.

 What’s on your bucket list?
FLY! The next thing coming up is sky diving and learn flying. Stacking up dollars follows. Hahaha

 What would your last meal be?
Traditional mom-made food, regardless of what it is. Eating with her would make the last meal last longer……

 Favorite ASDA moment?
‘Moments’ rather. Finding friends in ASDA fam, travelling to NLC and Annual, etc. etc. The connection we share and the memories we make are above and beyond all expectations. Grateful to be a part.

 Any last words?
​Believe in yourself. Don’t wait for things to work out, make em work out the way you want them to.

Where are you from?
Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic

What do you do in your free time?
I enjoy socializing and being around friends, but if I’m home and I’m free, I’ll be in the kitchen cooking. Also, I am a soccer enthusiast, so if there’s a good game I’ll almost certainly be watching it, even if it is on my phone.


What's on your bucket list?
Attend a FIFA World Cup. Live in Europe for some time. Visit all continents (except maybe Antarctica).

What would your last meal be?
Pastelon de platano maduro. It’s a Caribbean casserole dish made from sweet plantains, ground beef and cheese. Hits the spot every time.

Favorite ASDA moment?
My experience at the National Leadership Conference in Chicago was fantastic; it showed me a bigger picture of what ASDA is and gave me the opportunity to meet a great deal of awesome people. I also had a lot of fun at last year´s Halloween party; everyone was just full of good vibes that night

Any last words:
Be humble, everyone around you can teach you something you don’t know. Also, don’t break your neck doing dentistry, grab that mirror, your future-self will thank you.
