Why Breakthrough
Growing up as a minority from an underserved community in Philadelphia, I see myself in these kids. It’s important to me that they can relate to me and see an example of what they can go on to achieve. By sharing my journey with them, my hope is that I was able to inspire someone to identify their career path and have a more direct route to success.
