My father came to the U.S. from Kumasi, Ghana in 1968βon a student visa.
He didnβt just build a life. He built a foundation.
His story shaped mine.
A Fatherβs Day reflection on immigration, legacy, and whatβs at stake when we stop welcoming global talent. π§΅
π 46% of Fortune 500 companies were founded by immigrants or their children.
π¦ 80% of billion-dollar startups too.
That kind of impact often starts not with wealth or statusβbut with a student visa.
We forget that at our own risk.
This Fatherβs Day, I wrote about my dad, the ripple effect of immigration, and what we lose when we close the door on global talent.
If that resonates, I hope youβll read it.
