Abu Fofanah is one of 7 children born in West Africa, whose mom won the refugee lottery during the civil war to go to America and start a new life. While his mom was only making $28k a year, the community supported Abu and his family through their childhood, through school, education, and university.

During his time abroad, he paved his own path in using his skill in design thinking and data to begin helping local brands as well as big brands like Versace.
