Age: 19
From: Southern Province, Butare
Grade: Isonga (EY)
ASYV Family: Wright Brothers
Goal: To be a producer for audio songs and video editing – I think that’s the first thing I’ll do after I leave here.
Role Model: Frank, a graduate and intern, who works with the Media department and Jimmy, another graduate and intern, who teaches music. They are both active and creative and always looking for ways to help their brothers. They look at us like real brothers and show us real love.
Hobbies: Photography, videography and audio recording. “I used to produce my own music at home, mostly hip hop, R&B, and pop” – he found artists to come into the studio and then would edit it all together.
Jado is one of those people when you make eye contact with him from across the room, he flashes you a big smile and you can’t help but return it with one of your own. A true jack-of-all trades, Jado is involved with the traditional dance club, does photography, videography and plays guitar! We got to know him from English classes (he has excellent English) and relished meals at which we found ourselves seated near him. He was always one to make pleasant conversation, offer interesting questions and most of all just make us feel at home with him. Whenever you are talking to Jado, you feel like he is really just genuinely happy to be speaking with you. I suspect that doesn’t just go for the Americans he talks to, but a part of his charm towards all his friends and acquaintances. He is a true Neshama (good soul).
