Mwen te grandi nan boza, mwen te etidye dans, teyat, desen, ak mizik, mwen te gradye lekòl segondè byen bonè a 16, epi mwen te ale nan Texas Southern University. Yon ti tan apre, mwen te kòmanse karyè antrepriz mwen an 2010, m ap viv nan Doubay ak Irak pou yon koup de ane k ap travay nan endistri lwil oliv ak gaz.
Apre retounen lakay mwen, epi rekonekte ak pi bon kalite lekòl segondè mwen an ki gen 15 an, nou te deside soti nan zòn zanmi an e nou te marye an 2014. Karyè li te mennen nou nan Nijerya pou yon ti tan epi nou te pase tan nou vwayaje mond lan vizite Thailand, Vyetnam. , S. Afrik, Tanzani, Ongri ak plizyè destinasyon Ewopeyen an.
Sa a se kote mwen te kòmanse fotografi mwen an, kòmanse ak fotografi nan lari, Lè sa a, evantyèlman pòtrè zanmi ak evènman nan Lagos kote nou te rete nan epòk la. Mwen definitivman kenbe ensèk foto a epi mwen deside mwen te vle fè li sou yon baz aplentan lè nou te retounen lakay yo nan Texas.
Nou ap viv kounye a nan Richmond, TX e mwen te yon fotograf pwofesyonèl aplentan depi 2018. Nou gen de timoun, Emerald (Emmie) & Jidenna (JJ), ak Finn, gwo chen nou an ki toujou panse li se yon ti chen. Lè m pa travay, nou renmen pase tan nan lanati pou n ap eksplore Pak Eta yo, epi n ap tann sou plaj la.
Fanmi mwen te patisipe nan Families Helping Families depi twazan kounye a, li pran foto epi distribye manje bay fanmi ki nan bezwen yo. Se te yon plezi pou m ede vwazen mwen an, Quincy, kontinye grandi epi sèvi plis moun nan kominote a.

Mwen se yon Houston ki fyè, mwen fèt ak grandi isit la e mwen kontinye rele Houston lakay mwen. Antanke yon premye jenerasyon Ameriken Pès/Pakistan, mwen fyè pou m di paran m te imigre Ozetazini an 1973, e yo te pran diplòm bakaloreya yo, epi Houston se kote papa m te vin yon pwopriyetè biznis ki gen siksè pandan 40 ane kounye a. Li te pataje apresyasyon li pou chans Tè Opòtinite te ba li ak manman m ak nou 3 timoun yo. Akoz sa, mon trouve nesesite pou remet sa kominote ki’n donn lavi mon fanmir.
Mwen te gradye lekòl segondè nan Westbury Christian School an 1999 e mwen te ale nan Houston Baptist University jiska 2003. HBU kote mwen te rankontre zanmi mwen renmen anpil ak fondatè Families Helping Families, Quincy Collins. Lè m te gen pitit fi m nan Alayna an 2007, mwen te kontinye jwenn lis Dwayen an pou moun ki resevwa onè lè m te gradye nan Purdue University ak yon gpa 3.86. Chemen karyè mwen te mennen m 'nan siksè nan jesyon operasyon biznis nan divès endistri, epi kounye a mwen sèvi kòm yon Manadjè Pwojè.
Families Helping Families se youn nan òganizasyon charitab nou te adopte nan lavi nou, e mwen trè onore ak imilite pou m lidè Ekip Sèvis pou Fanmi yo. Lè m gen entèraksyon premye men ak fanmi k ap resevwa yo, mwen santi ak wè veritab rekonesans, dlo nan je lajwa, ak soulajman total yo eksprime, epi li vrèman san valè. Chak segonn mwen pase ak òganizasyon sa a vo li. Bay fanmi ki gen difikilte yo ranpli nanm nou, epi nou pral sèvi kominote nou an avèk fyète ak Families Helping Families. Mwen remèsye kominote a paske li bay lavi fanmi mwen cheri a, e se pi piti sa mwen ka fè pou m eksprime rekonesans nou an. Mwen pa t ap isit la jodi a si se pa t pou kominote sa a.
