About

My name is Samuel Opoku Abora, I am from Ghana, West Africa. I live in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. I am a second year doctoral student of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. I currently work with children with Autism in an Autism Spectrum Disorder School in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. I am a Christian by Faith and i believe in humanity. I believe that a life lived for others is a life worth living. I have a dream to affect children's life and their learning and create an earthly paradise for children who have no or little hope. I am a multi-talented and multi-skillful person who uses his talents and skills to put smiles in peoples face. I am wild, I dream wildly, I touch my wild dreams and make them real.
