Brief Description of Life Experience:

I grew up in a broken family in Senegal. I came by myself to Canada, a country where I no friends or family. I became deeply involved in my community and with foreign students. Regardless of the struggles I had in my childhood, I kept the faith and the conviction that all was not in vain. I was able to successfully integrate into my host community.
