Dr. Felipe Lopez-Sustaita, Associate Dean at Lansing Community College for Support Services, shares his story of growing up in the United States as a migrant worker. Felipe received his master's degree in clinical social work, and his Doctorate in Community College affairs. Citing Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Serach for Meaning, he defines success in life as someone taking risks to pursue their purpose and passion. Felipe’s spirit of hope, hospitality, and indomitable belief that inside everyone is greatness waiting to flourish inspires all those who meet him.
Felipe focuses on his “why” every single day. A powerful “why”, he shares, got him through lonely, dark times and helped him push through setbacks. He still considers himself a farmer, in a sense, but using his voice rather than hands, now, to make the world a better place. He encourages people to take on a growth mindset and take time to figure out their “why” and define some goals, dreams, and a direction.
