Welcome to my humble space—where leadership meets purpose, faith meets action, and hearts meet across cultures. Whether you're here to read, reflect, or reconnect, I pray this journey inspires you as much as it has shaped me.
Welcome to my leadership and learning journey!
I’m Norlila binti Amin Chng, a passionate educator, researcher, and community leader currently pursuing a PhD Fast Track in Educational Psychology at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). With a strong grounding in child and family psychology, and hands-on experience across legal, academic, clinical, and community sectors, I dedicate my work to nurturing inclusive, value-driven education and leadership.
As a Chinese Muslim Daie and facilitator (Pemudahcara) under Jabatan Agama Islam Johor (JAIJ), I actively promote interfaith understanding, mental health awareness, and spiritual well-being—especially among diverse and minority communities. For me, leadership means serving with sincerity, educating with empathy, and inspiring transformation from within.
