Speak The Language Of The Person You

My Journey Began With A Single Pencil. While Traveling Through India In 2006, I Asked A Boy Begging On The Streets, 'if You Could Have Anything In The World, What Would You Want?' And He Answered Me With Two Words: 'a Pencil.' Luckily, I Had One In My Pocket, And In The Second It Took Me To Give It To Him, A Defining Dream Was Born.

I Could Enjoy The Life That I Had By Virtue Of The Educational Attainment That My Grandparents And Parents Had Pursued. Education Was Always Incredibly Valued In Our Family.
