Nazamuddin Mohammadi

After emigrating from Afghanistan to India, Nazamuddin Mohammadi arrived with his family in Rochester, NY in the spring of 2023. He joined MCC in the fall and is studying computer science. His hope for the future is to start his own website design company so that he can help his family. In this essay, Naz revisits strong memories of his childhood in a war zone and the journey that ultimately brought him to the United States. Through his recollections, Naz explores what role fate plays in our lives as well as what we can control. Read Naz’s story.
