They have been his primary caregivers and have always offered support throughout his career and in every aspect of life. Muchiri said that challenges come from all sides with most of them emanating from inside us. He wants to pursue personal development, learn new challenges and reach a level where disabled people have never been in.
“I keep discovering and reinventing myself and that in itself is motivation enough.” Brian concluded.
