Sewit is a first-generation Eritrean-Canadian who was born and raised in Toronto. She came from humble beginnings, where her family migrated here fleeing the war in Eastern-Africa in hopes of finding a better life. From as early as she can remember the idea of hard work bearing the fruits of success has always been reiterated to her by her parents. This is something that was ingrained in her everyday, where she always excelled at anything she put her mind to. She attended the University of Toronto, where she did an exchange program at Oxford University and finished with an Honours Bachelor of Arts Degree at the young age of 20!
