Ten minutes with Amari
01What do you attribute your success to?
I would definitely say there's been a lot of people along the way that have been placed on my path, whether mentors, supervisors, family who just really instilled life into me, and then also the trials of life. There were many times where I just wanted to give up but in those moments that's what really built me and built character in me that is sustaining me now.
