Dreams of a Village Boy: My Journey from Africa to America

Ashley Shumba is a Zimbabwean-American author whose journey embodies the quintessential immigrant success story. Born in the remote village of Mberengwa, Zimbabwe, Ashley's entrepreneurial spirit ignited at the tender age of seven when he began selling fruits and beverages on the streets on behalf of a neighbor during the drought and food crisis.

Through a series of inspiring events beyond his control, Ashley's path led him to opportunities that spanned continents. Today, he has lived, worked, and made an impact in over twenty countries across Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas.

Ashley's journey caught the attention of NFL legend Brian Dawkins Sr., who saw in it a powerful message for youth worldwide. This book is more than a memoir-it showcases the importance of strong moral values and unwavering dedication to one's goals.
