Ravahn Samati
Ravahn's quest for purpose, perspective and identity has taken him to Iran to better understand his heritage, Morocco to study Arabic, Guatemala for service and Cornell College in Mt. Vernon, Iowa for an education in International Relations. Ravahn's experience with Quakerism has empowered him to speak his truth, expanded the list of concern on his conscious, gifted him with unnatural patience but been a cultural exercise more so than spiritual leading.
