I am a man who has always believed in self motivation and determination. As a young refugee I was forced to adapt to loss of family and changes of place, language and customs. My beliefs were crucial in helping me survive and rehabilitate from a critical motorcycle accident I was involved in as a young man. Though I became limited in speech and physical abilities due to injuries from the accident, I never gave up on my goals.
Through all the changes and challenges I've faced, I survived to become more than I could ever have imagined. Years after the accident I was able to accomplish my goal of earning a college degree. I continue to challenge myself everyday to be a stronger and better me.
I chose to share some of my story of survival on this website in order to encourage others coping with unexpected life changes and challenges that they too can be more than a survivor.
I've written a book about my full life story titled "Joseph Woldu: More Than A Survivor." It is available in both eBook and paperback on Amazon. To order go to "Book" header at top of this webpage and click on link.
In my "Photo" section you can view pictures of my grandmother, mother and father. All three are featured in my book.
