I was born in Uganda, East Africa and my childhood years were some of my most difficult years in this life. I ended up losing my mother at the age of 3 months old, and had the typical less fortunate childhood of an orphan. Living without a home. Without food. Without education. Without the basics of life.
I was then lucky enough to get helped and empowered, and that was a major shift in my life. I was lucky to attend a high school that was also a leadership academy and I was always trained to think as a change maker in this world. I remember one day being told by my teachers to write a vision statement and without hesitation wrote:
“I want to build houses in Africa to help every child suffering on the streets”
That moment will never leave my mind, because it was the day I discovered my purpose. Helping street children now became my focal purpose, so I attended university and studied social sciences in order to professionally create my vision project. It’s at that same time that I discovered I was a musical artist as well.
So I decided to combine both my strengths and purposes, and in 2010, Beats Of Hope was born! From starting a children’s home, then a talent center, then starting a record label and then touring globally in Europe, USA, Asia & across Africa.
I thank all the wonderful people that have helped make my journey in music and philanthropy possible.
