Through the Michigan Diversity Council and events like the Black Men In Leadership Summit, young men like Ribbron are being mentored to become the next Kenneth Matthies and beyond.
“A bright young man and he has a bright future ahead of him,” said Jarrett Waddy, Director of DEI Operations at Auto Club Group.
Waddy is Ribbron’s mentor. He too grew up in River Rouge and encourages Ribbron to chase after his dreams.
“I always encourage individuals to look within first to understand who you are,” said Waddy. “And when you identify those strengths and when you see those gifts and when you see those talents and you continue to develop those skills take advantage of those opportunities.”
