Name one person, other than your parents, who has had the most influence on your life. Why?

One individual who has profoundly influenced my life is Rihanna. Ironically, she was born in the same island as my mom, Barbados. Her remarkable journey from a small island to global success is jaw dropping. She embodies many qualities I admire and that align with my being – a versatile artist, fashion icon, role model, business owner, a compassionate humanitarian who gives back, and the fact that she is true to herself. Her achievements resonate heavily with my values and aspirations.

What is your proudest personal accomplishment (other than participating in this pageant)?

My proudest accomplishment has to be when I made the goal to learn about financial literacy and security, then to become a financial advisor and help hundreds of people in the span of two years to make life changing decisions and implementations. This journey not only empowered others but also allowed me to leverage my knowledge to secure assets for myself.

I think the most unique thing about myself is my humility and optimism through all the challenges I face in life. I somehow always find the strength to get through hardships gracefully.

I’ve always wanted to do things to give back and help make the world a better place. I’m fulfilled with the work I currently do, helping individuals and their families to be financially secure, I also have a clothing store that empowers women to feel confident and I also sing music with an aim to uplift and inspire others.

What would be your “dream job” in life?

My ultimate dream is to have a role where I can leverage my influence to foster unity and contribute significantly to world peace. The world would be so beautiful if we could all be accepting and loving toward one another.

Describe where you were raised and what your childhood was like.

I grew up in both Scarborough and Whitby. One being a city, in which was more fast paced and diverse, while the other was more secluded, and rural. I grew up spending a lot of time with my cousins, we would play a lot and were very close and family oriented. I also had a small selection of friends and just enjoyed the simple things in life, like laughing and living in the moment.

I wouldn’t say any of my jobs were unusual. My first job was at a hair salon, then I was a waitress and server, then I became a financial advisor.

I’ve volunteered doing food banks, Red Cross fundraising, I’ve also done mental health and breast cancer walk/run.

What is your most unusual talent?

I would say my most unusual talent is my ability to soothe children, me and children typically have great energy exchange.

Where is the most interesting place you have been to?

I guess you can say Amsterdam, mainly because when I had gone there years ago, there was a coffee shop where cannabis was permitted and I had never seen anything like that before.

What do you hope to be doing in ten years?

Enjoying a life of peace, having a family of my own, spending time with loved ones, continuously giving back to the world and people in need.

I just want to say that I’m extremely excited to embark on this pageant journey. I know so many great things are to come from this experience and I can’t wait to meet the other delegates and trainers!
