I am a travel enthusiast, I have been since as long as I could remember my parents always made sure to make sure we were as cultured as possible since we live in Utah. My sister and I would spend summer in Florida and months at a time in Africa. Even though I was born and raised in Utah I speak Swahili fluently thanks to my mother. Now that I am an adult I continue to educate myself on as many cultures as I can by visiting different countries and cultures. I have been to a lot of different places and plan on being to a lot more within the next couple of years.

Music has always been a big part of my life since as long as I could remember. I remember driving from Utah to Florida with my parents when I was younger. My father played brought a little collection of CD's with him. That ranged from gospel music to old school hip hop. It was in that little hatchback car driving across the country, My father made sure that we knew where rap and hip hop originated from he played us Rappers Delight after I heard that song I fell in love with music and wanting to listen to real music. There is something about old school music back then they actually sang about meaningful subjects unlike music today.

I love fashion and shopping I spend hours on you tube and websites looking for new ideas for clothing and things for my home. I have recently just invested in a vanity desk and mirror. I do makeup often and have spent a lot of money on it, it is now my hobby and hope that I can go to school and be able to become a part time MUA because I love to do makeup on others as well.
