Speaking on BBC today in their DC studios
My name is Amanda Makki and I am a motivational speaker, lawyer and TV legal and political analyst. As a motivational speaker, I'd love to offer my inspirational, American Dream story to your attendees.
As an immigrant to the U.S, my family and I faced many challenges including poverty, language/cultural barriers and fleeing our family and loved ones. My father worked menial jobs while he studied and became an Ear, Nose and Throat surgeon, which he is to this day, and I became a healthcare lawyer and worked in the pentagon after 9/11 and in Congress working on suicide and healthcare issues and I even ran for Congress.

I am a motivational speaker, lawyer and TV personality. I offer my audiences a story of inspiration and hope, and my American Dream story as a shining example of your ability to overcome challenges and succeed!
As an immigrant to the U.S, my family and I faced many challenges including poverty and language/cultural barriers. My father worked menial jobs while he studied and became a surgeon, which he is to this day, and I became a healthcare lawyer and worked in the Pentagon just days after 9/11 because of my foreign language skills. I worked in Congress during the passage of the Affordable Care Act, and as a lawyer and lobbyist for Ozempic at Novo Nordisk, the largest maker of insulin in the world, and as a Partner in one of the largest global law firms, all before the age of 40.
I have run for Congress and I have worked with political candidates throughout the country. I have helped veterans as a VA Accredited Attorney to help them obtain their disability benefits, especially with their post 9/11 battles with PTSD, and suicidal. I am regularly featured on the BBC, Fox News, Al-Arabiya, News Nation, SkyNews and Newsmax.
