Afrika’s Struggle at a McGraw Hill Dinner

I’m at a McGraw Hill dinner on the eve of the two-day CUNY IT Conference 2025.

Afrika’s Struggle Celebrates a Double Birthday

I am dining with my former students, Reginald Wills (Goldman Sachs) and Sujen Wu Wu (HQ Capital), as well as Ms. Wu Wu’s husband.

It is a reunion of sorts – I coached both former students to national victory in the Blackstone LaunchPad competition, beating 45 other schools.

Also, it is a belated double birthday celebration for both Ms. Wu Wu and me. We share the same birthday.

She introduces us to her husband, a CPA and a graduate of Baruch College.
