"I only had a grade 7 education ... and nobody knew this"

Raman Moodley’s life started in a separated Indian community in a tough South African neighbourhood. After a challenging start to life … and leaving school at grade 7 … he amazingly had a meaningful career in finance and banking.

But he was unfulfilled, so with his wife and two young children, they moved to the USA.

In his first job at “Home Depot”, meeting the public, he realised “when white people worked through the door I was petrified to help them”. From then, he and his wife challenged themselves to change this.

Ultimately, a meeting with a school teacher called Josh totally changed his direction in life. Josh invited him to began working with kids who had experienced tough upbringings and after the initial 1 hour meeting … that went for 3 hours … a passion was released.

Raman is writing a book about his life experiences … it’ll surely be inspirational and have a positive impact on many others.
