I am a vivacious soul that’s known to be too blunt, “artistically inclined," and at times mistaken to be shy. I dislike long walks on the beach and unproductive, deviant people. People love to converse with me because I say things that others either don’t think about or are too afraid to say aloud. I may seem “mean” initially, but I am pretty easy to get along with for the most part. I love helping people and offering a shoulder to cry to on, but I don’t supply tissues. My steez is simplistic -- button earrings, wooden rosary, skinny jeans, and a tee that may be graphic now and again; the color purple tends to stick to me. I am an aspiring entrepreneur and writer addicted to fashion blogs.  I intend on inspiring adolescents that have survived traumatic experiences, especially females that have been raped, to never give up on their dreams. I pride myself on being independent and strong willed. I may strive for perfection, but I am by no means perfect. I have big goals and pray that I am granted the time to accomplish them all. 

What Makes Me Beautiful / What Beauty Means to Me
The vibrant hues of my soul. The yellows, purples, pinks, and blues. The black.

What Brings Me Joy
Laughter and the way that he smiles at me.

What I Love Most About My Culture
The Strength that we exude on a daily basis.
