Yusif Ali & Maka Ahmed came to the US as refugees from Somalia few years ago and around that time a stranger they met at a bookstore introduced them to this concept. Eighteen months later after their decision to build the business they reached the Platinum level and Maka was able to be a full time mother for her kids instead of working from home.
Yusuf Ali worked in the financial industry as a stock broker, later became a financial advisor series 65 certified and worked with major financial firms. He later left the industry and become an organizer for non-profit organizations that aids in low income housing and after 7 years of being engaged with multiple non-profits, he started two international non-profits himself.
In 2016, they accomplished their dream of becoming Britt Diamonds and with the BWW mentorship program plan to fund their initiatives and have more time to travel to raise awareness and continue to give back to society.
