> My name is Rodriques, and I am blind. I lost my eyesight in 1997 in a car accident. I can say that going blind changed my life for the better. There are so many things that I have done as a blind person that I don’t believe I would have done with sight.
> 
> On the business side, I have worked at LC Industries for six years and currently, work at Industries of the Blind in Greensboro as an Inventory Control Specialist. I’ve been employed there for about ten years now. Some of my interests are Beep ball, bowling, and Audio darts. These hobbies have given me an awesome opportunity to travel the country and meet new people.
> 
> In 2013, I started going to Grace Christian University because I felt that God had a plan for me. I received an associate degree in Leadership in Ministry, which God has been using me ever since. He has called me to minister with the youth and is using my background to help keep them in school and off the streets. I share my personal story at many different local events like back-to-school activities and church services.
> 
> I want God to keep using me to draw others to Him. I am blessed every time my life’s story changes a young person’s life. It’s important to me to see them not make the same mistakes that I made, at their age. I believe that community outreach gives our youth a chance to make better decisions about their future.
