“Being involved in the communication side of a complex humanitarian emergency is challenging… Information is a vital form of assistance during disasters and conflicts. And being involved in this process, helping communities is my passion. Every story, every program is a potential positive outcome to a society trying to rebuild from a disaster. I’ve always said this no longer feels like a job, it feels more like a mission.”

“Helping students grow cognitively, emotionally, and socially is a wonderful blessing I will cherish for the rest of my life. The moment students exhibit the tipping points of a critical mind, collaborative behavior, and compassionate heart, I feel like a loving father who sees his first newborn for the first time. The moment they become more independent, I feel like a parent sending off his children who have decided to build their own families. The moment they wave their hands while saying ‘Thank you’ during their commencement rites, I thank God for the opportunity of touching people’s lives.”
