The Human Aspect of Keith

I felt inadequate and walked around waiting for what I would do wrong, something my teachers emphasized by pointing it out. Growing up I struggled to follow my peers at schools with undiagnosed dyslexia. The rigidness and unsympathetic ways of the system chipped away at my motivation and self-worth. I continued to find my way to maneuver my academic journey, but I felt lonely in my struggle to succeed.
