My name is Jamell Nimeneh Ali Henderson and I was born July 8,1985 to the late Warren Henderson and the late Nancy J. Benjamin. I live in in Brooklyn NY and I’ve been independent since the age of 17. Growing up, I was raised to be the leader of my family, learning the values and principles of life through my father; love, generosity and guidance from my mother. I was in the NYC Foster Care System for 8 years and successfully aged out of the system at the age of 21.
