Full Bio
“On behalf of the User Experience Design Studio team at UnitedHealth Group, thank you for your amazing performance yesterday, Inclusive design: seeing what others can’t virtual edutainment webcast. You are a pleasure to work with, a dedicated artist and a true professional. Your performance deeply resonated with our internal audience.Sometimes all it takes is five minutes with someone to know they’re special. Spending an additional five with Blessing Offor reveals something more. Born with glaucoma in his left eye and losing complete sight by age 10, Blessing has not let his hardships deter him from becoming one of the most sought-after talents in Music City. Blessing’s music prompts joy that encourages a sense of contentment with thought provoking lyrics that elicit a second listen. His inviting voice draws you in like a familiar friend and Blessing proves that by being who he is, he is indeed innately special. After years of honing his craft and finding his voice, the Nigerian-born, Nashville based singer/songwriter is now poised to share his thoughtfully crafted pop instincts and unique perspective with the world.
The youngest of six, Blessing immigrated from Nigeria to the U.S. with his uncle at the age of six. Blessing’s parents selflessly sent their son to America in the hope that he’d be able to receive medical care for his glaucoma. Several years later, a powerful spray from a water gun damaged his retina, removing the sight in his right eye, just as he was starting to learn piano. Yet, the disability did not deter him. When other kids went out to play ball, Blessing found himself behind the ivories obsessing over Stevie Wonder’s “Ribbon in the Sky,” realizing that music would forever be a part of his story.
