FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT MY HOMETOWN/COUNTRY
Our melting pot of cultures; I love Junkanoo, our Bahamian dishes especially conch salad, rake n scrape music, our distinct dialect of "Bahamianese" and our beautiful turquoise beaches.
LIFE'S AMBITITIONS
To become a successful Journalist and Entrepreneur.
HOBBIES
I enjoy writing, reading, surfing the internet, working with the youths, modeling, sewing, dancing, travelling and spending time with family and friends.
MY GOALS IN LIFE
I hope to become the next Miss Bahamas World, have a #1 Best-selling novel, and own a chain of successful businesses.
MY BEST ASSET IS
My Best Asset is my smile because with it I can turn someone's frown upside down.
MY DAILY PHILOSOPHY IS
"Do what you have to do, so that you can do what you want to do".
THE MOVIE (AND/OR BOOK) THAT MOST INFLUENCED MY LIFE
I was most influenced by "The Measure of a Man" by Sidney Poitier because despite his circumstances he quickly and successfully adapted to the changes in his life. Not only did he adapt quickly, but he realized what he had to do so that he could do what he wanted to do and he became the best at what he did.
WHO I WOULD LIKE TO MEET AND WHY
I'd like to meet Nelson Mandela. He went through so many struggles in his lifetime, and with the many obstacles that he faced (one of them being imprisoned for twenty-seven years) one would think that it would break him down, but it only made him stronger. He forgave his oppressors and is now a living legend.
I AM MOTIVATED BY
I am motivated by pessimistic people who expect the worst instead of praying for the best, those that try to bring me down. They keep me motivated to succeed beyond their expectations.
WHAT I WOULD LIKE THE JUDGES TO KNOW ABOUT ME IS
I am an intelligent, outgoing, beautiful and vibrant young lady who is ready to accept the challenges of today while possessing even more exciting dreams for tomorrow. I will be an excellent ambassador for my country and my people.
