Michael Gofff, Class of 2014

“The Shafik Gabr Fellowship presented for me a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet talented leaders in the United States and Egypt, to visit monuments and sites, and to build tremendous friendships. In selecting me for the Fellowship, Mr. Gabr and the Fellowship team have challenged me to explore new areas of society, to broaden my ideas about the world, and to show a level of leadership beyond that which I thought I was capable. I learned how to better engage people of diverse backgrounds and the power that engagement can have in our lives. I am especially excited to be developing our action project, which will again push the boundary of what I thought I was able to do.”
