Will Most Enjoy About The Pageant:
I will enjoy meeting and getting to know each contestant, while experiencing the challenge of the competition.
Most Want to Meet:
I would love to meet the two “O”s, Oprah and Obama. This is mostly because I would love to talk to them about changes from a black perspective and in the case of Oprah, a woman’s perspective. They are both great individuals who communicate well. Their works motivate and inspire people to action. I also admire the humanitarianism and love for children that they portray throughout the media as examples to innovative ways in which they can implement change.

I once had a photo shoot and the session included me posing with a snake around my neck.

Personal Statement:
My personality is fiery and warm, passionate and self expressive with an urge to act now. I am very affectionate and generous towards loved ones. I am a social butterfly and usually the life and soul of a social gathering, thanks to my enthusiastic nature. I am energetic, dynamic and courageous. I rarely hang around to check out details. However give me a good cause for which to fight, a problem to solve, or something to pioneer and this enterprising personality comes into its own.
I am an extravert all the way. I love taking risk, and enjoy new things. I see myself as an innovator, always thinking outside of the box. I always strive hard at being the best I can be in whatever I do as I have a very competitive nature. I listen twice as much as I speak and as a result, my enthusiasm and competitiveness brings great success. Finally, I believe that one can go as far as one can humanly possibly go through prayer, perseverance and hard work. |
