FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT MY HOMETOWN/COUNTRY:
My most favorite thing about my country is, no matter where you go on this earth you will always have that feeling of home whenever you return. I love The Bahamas not only because it is considered "paradise" by many but because I am proud to call it home. This country makes me who I am.
LIFE’S AMBITIONS:
My life ambition is to be successful in everything I do. When I look back on my life I would like to be able to feel like I made a difference in someone's life.
HOBBIES:
Reading, running, staying fit, web surfing, meeting new people, learning
MY GOALS IN LIFE:
In five years I would hopefully like to accomplish all the goals I have set out for myself. Which include, being crowned Miss Bahamas, graduating from Graduate School with my Masters in Social Work and my MBA and finally opening a center where youth and young adults can come together and mentor one another.
MY BEST ASSET IS:
My best asset is my empathy. It helps me relate to others, whether it be because of a joy or pain. Once you are able to relate to other people you form a bond with them that can potentially last forever.
MY DAILY PHILOSOPHY IS:
My daily philosophies are, and I live by these quotes: "Treat others as you want to be treated" and "Why take second place when first is open. If you do this you'll have a tendency to do it for the rest of your life".
THE MOVIE (AND/OR BOOK) THAT MOST INFLUENCED MY LIFE:
The movie that most influenced my life would have to be 'Remember the Titans". This movie taught me not only how to embrace change but to look past the exterior of a person. We are all one, despite race, nationality, religion or sexual preference and to reach a common goal we must always work together as a team.
WHO I WOULD LIKE TO MEET AND WHY:
There are three people I would like to meet: Tyler Perry, The Obamas and Oprah Winfrey. I would like to meet them because they did not allow their circumstances to dictate who they were and what they were able to achieve.
I AM MOTIVATED BY:
I am motivated by myself. Each day I wake up I want to become a better person than I was the day before; spirituality, mentally, physically and emotionally. Not only for myself but also to benefit the people I will be in contact with on a daily basis.
WHAT IS THE MOST UNUSUAL THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?
The most unusual thing I have probably ever done was entering this contest.
BRIEFLY DESCRIBE THE MOMENT IN YOUR LIFE YOU ARE MOST PROUD OF:
The moment in my life I was most proud of was the day I graduated from college.
WHAT I WOULD LIKE THE JUDGES TO KNOW ABOUT ME:
I have been featured as the Tribune's Athlete of the week in 2004. I also represented the Bahamas in the 2005 Carifta Games where I obtained a silver and bronze medal in the heptathlon and 4X4 relay respectively. During College, I was one of the founding members of Mckendree University's International Student Organization and a member of the University's Black Student Organization.
