Marthe Lewis, one of Strayer University’s 2009 MBA graduates, is being featured in Redbook magazine.
Marthe Lewis was nine years old when her impoverished family sent her to America from the Ivory Coast, to pursue a better life. However, these dreams were crushed, when she became isolated and abused in her new home.
After finally running away at the age of 16, she entered a foster care program. She moved through 5 homes in three years, but that didn’t stop her from completing her high school education. She completed high school in those three years, going on to college and obtaining her MBA here at Strayer University.
