Born and raised in Nairobi Kenya. At the age of eleven, I left behind the bottomless pit of poverty that promised nothing for a young mans future. Up to this point my single parent mother struggled with the harsh reality of not being able to provide for the three of us after our fathers untimely death. The coldest day I have ever experienced was the 23rd of December 1993, which was my arrival in the U.K. This change in climate came hand in hand with a change in culture. The only thing that was determined to stay the same was me.
