Professor Muyombano is one of Maine’s new legal immigrants. He is currently working as a Social Services Specialist for the City of South Portland. He teaches at the University of Southern Maine and Capella University while serving in numerous community organizations.

His career path was influenced by his parents who were both involved in academics. His father also had government leadership roles which led Aimé to also pursue diplomatic positions. Aimé shares that he had a positive childhood but was impacted by the family’s refugee status and truly seeing inequities around him. 

This interview only scratches the surface of Professor Muyombano’s story.  The atrocities that led to his having to flee his home country and family are still very raw and real. Check out the additional information document for more about his vast local and global body of work.

His passion continues to be making a real difference for people. A special focus is helping New Mainers adapt and make contributions in Maine and their local communities.
