God, Family and Education is your amazing and transformative message. Your knowledge, experiences and accomplishments are mind blowing. Also, what a legacy that you have built for your children in a single generation. I know that so many people that feel small and unseen today, will see how unlimited their possibilities are through your story. It amazes me the prioritization and path of your education coming out of Rwanda vs. the limited opportunities, bureaucracy, and under-educating of African Americans. You model that no matter the starting point, the world is yours, but only if you do not let your circumstance of birth or challenges define you. Your message tells us that we are all Born to Dream! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDwight D.
