I have always understood and respected the power behind unity. Nobellum is a Social Enterprise that creates impact through a collective movement. We focus on uplifting the Black community to create lasting socioeconomic change.
Before joining Nobellum, I asked myself one crucial question. . Does the fear outweigh the opportunity? I found myself plunging into the deep end with no tech background, yet I felt inclined to transition myself into the realm of STEM because I strongly believe the world is heading in this direction. I am grateful for the opportunity to join an organization with other like minded professionals who are looking to break the stigma associated with tech.
Melisa, our founder, and I became good friends in college. We both went to Sheridan. Often, she would speak about her aspirations and ideas for an organization that would impact the black community. I immediately saw her vision and wanted to join her in creating such an impactful initiative. Catalyst organizations such as Nobellum are needed to seek change in the BIPOC community. I believe it will not only create opportunities for Black and minority entrepreneurs but also lead an impact that transcends generations. I am extremely humbled and privileged to be a part of it and I look forward to being able to witness it blossoming.
