graduated from Kingston University, London in 2014. I met Nathan aged 13 and we met regularly whilst I was in secondary school as I was picked out as an individual who would benefit from his mentoring, whilst in school.

There have been many challenges from then until now, both in and out of school that I have come out from much stronger and wiser thanks to the lessons, advice, love and support given to me. In a nutshell, the main takeaways for me from our sessions were the words and exercises that helped to change some of my mindsets and encouragement to channel my high passions and energy towards positive outcomes rather than the negative that surrounds us in our youth and young adulthood.

In addition to this, I have appreciated the opportunities afforded to me by the initiatives started by Nathan, The Robert Levy Foundation, Inspired Futures and other connected groups and people.

An example is a trip we took to the United States where I served as a supervisor whilst we worked with Habitat for Humanity to build a home for a low-income family to benefit from and served at soup kitchens and food banks in the most deprived neighbourhoods in the MLK Boulevard in the city of Fort Pierce, Florida.

Experiences are priceless and this was a truly eye opening, humbling, character building and over all great experience that I will be able to draw from for the rest of my life!

I am currently working as an Account Manager for a multinational construction and manufacturing company and hope to return to University to study for a masters degree. I will continue to nurture and develop my business ideas and ventures and want to tie it in with international development (one of my passions).
