We Asked:

How and when did you become a model?
“I first started modelling at age 15. My aunt took me to Pulse Caribbean Model Search. My dad thought I was too young to be a model so I had to drop out of the competition. A year later I was scouted by Saint International at my high school to be in “Fashion Face of the Caribbean”. I went back to Pulse Caribbean Model Search at 17/18 when I left high school. I completed the competition as a fashion model in 2012. I migrated to the United Kingdom at age 20 to become an international model. Got signed to Oxygen Model Model Management.”

Who is someone you admire and why?
“I admire Grace Jones so much, she’s goals. She has such a unique and androgynous personality and style like myself. I love how artistic/creative she is and how much she combines her music & fashion together. We share the same star sign (Taurus) and country of origin (Jamaica).”

What is an issue or cause you are passionate about?
“A cause I’m passionate about is women who’ve been victims of domestic violence as I was also a victim of this a few years ago. One day I had to put an end to that cycle and be strong enough so I can become a voice for this cause one day. Domestic violence doesn’t necessarily have to be just physical abuse, it can be verbal & emotional as well, and I was a victim of all of it.”
