About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world, learn about cultures and meet people

ABOUT ME

Those who know me well would say that I am very kind, generous, hospitable, and love to travel and meet people. They would also tell you that I have an outstanding understanding of other cultures and backgrounds. My friends will also say to you that I love the game of basketball and I am a big fan of Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers. My parents say that my generosity will ruin me financially some day but I am still open to giving and sharing what I have because life is too short and money simply doesnt matter too much to me.

PHILOSOPHY

Advance the common good

Interests

The thing that grabs my attention the most in life is seeing people suffering or hungry. I cannot stand seeing kids or anyone not having much to eat on any given day. It simply rips my heart in half and I also want to do more to help but sometimes I am limited due to the lack of enough support or people willing to get on board with me. I spend much of my time traveling the world and learning about other cultures. I also love spending time with children in other countries as they are just so fun to be around with.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. The genocide in Rwanda and Burundi still remains an indelible event in my mind and I dont think I will ever forget or comprehend why it got so far and so many lives being lost. Hopefully, that was the last this world will ever witness.

2. I went to Saint Lucia in December of 2011 and still cannot believe the amount of love and attention I received from the people. I had no idea that Saint Lucians were that welcoming and caring to foreigners. They were all nice! There wasnt one person that was not caring. WOW!
