BHAYA is proud to share that Lejla Festic, daughter of BHAAAS members Dr. Emir Festic and Dr. Nura Festic, has achieved outstanding success by winning the silver medal in the Junior Women category at the prestigious Florida Open figure skating competition.
Lejla’s impressive performance highlights the dedication, discipline, and talent that young members of our community continue to demonstrate across a variety of fields — including sports, academics, and the arts. Her achievement not only reflects personal excellence but also stands as a testament to the values that BHAYA promotes: cross-cultural engagement, ambition, and youth leadership.
As part of our mission to foster strong intellectual and cultural ties among young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the United States, BHAYA celebrates Lejla’s success as an inspiration for her peers. We look forward to seeing where her journey takes her next!
Congratulations, Lejla!
