From Refugee to U.S. Soldier:

A Journey of Faith and Success

The Depth of Our Roots:

When storms arise and winds collide,
It’s our deep roots that help us thrive.
In times of need, I learned to cope,
Through unshakable faith and steadfast hope.


Each loss, each trial, each tear that fell,
Became the strength to rise and excel.
The winds may roar, the shadows grow,
But faith and courage will always show.
