What has been the most difficult thing you’ve had to go through in your life.
After a lot of thought, I have to admit I haven’t had much difficulty in my life. To give you an answer, though, I do have a defining point in my life and that was 9/11. ,
What did you learn from it that you could pass on to someone else?
I was about to be a sophomore in college and wanted help but didn’t know how. I was a “starving student” on the other side of the country and didn’t know how I could help. Fast forward 8 years and I started a non-profit dedicated to providing volunteer and philanthropy opportunities. The org is now defunct due to my ever increasing workload but I’m extremely proud of what we did and the experience really taught me that everyone can do something you just have to have a strong enough desire.
