Yes You Can!

KenyaI am an accomplished environmentalist pursuing graduate studies in Kenya. I work for the Government and also run my initiative of empowering young girls.
I am 28 years old.
I had finished college and had lost hope as my country was faced with an unemployment crisis in 2011. My family could no longer support me financially and I knew I had to make things happen for myself.
I did small business and as people laughed at me I kept smiling at them and told them I love my job and my business is great. I kept a positive attitude and felt the world was conspiring for me to succeed.
In 2013 I got employed by the Government of Kenya and immediately I began my Masters Program in Environmental Science!!
I now encourage my friends and peers to always think positive and be grateful in every situation and doors will open where there had only been walls.
I am currently reading Hero and I believe I will achieve my dreams of travelling all over the world and making friends in different countries.
