Growing up as the son of missionaries, I spent 16+ years living across six countries — including France, Uganda, Senegal, and Mauritania — before ever settling in one place for long. I learned French in the classrooms of Albertville, picked up Swahili and Luganda while volunteering at Good Shepards Fold Orphanage in Uganda's forest regions, and called the slums of Nouakchott home during some of my most formative years, where I saw poverty in its rawest form. In Dakar, I grew up immersed in Senegalese culture — making Attaya, playing soccer with locals, and joining community outreach across the region. Those years abroad didn't just broaden my worldview; they shaped how I think, how I connect with people, and ultimately how I approach building things that matter.
