Dr Faith Nwaobia’s journey towards self-discovering is rooted in vision, courage and determination.
A very humble beginning that started in his days as a classroom teacher earning less than 50 dollars (monthly) even as a graduate, as he continued Job hunting.
He later got employment with Union Bank of Nigeria after 6 years of job hunting – where he experienced unemployment first-hand.
For a more broad career path, Dr Faith left the banking industry after completing his Master’s degree and subsequently his PhD research in Economics and went back to build on his teaching skills as a Cambridge Economics Instructor while volunteering to lecture at NOUN, before joining Marleq – an international career coaching firm.
In March 2020 in the wake of the Covid19, the drive for creating a single platform that connects and empowers the youths primarily to fight youth unemployment led him to start YouthUp Global.
