My family has always had Cape Verdean pride but I don't think it was something the kids in the family necessarily understood. However, I was very conscious of the fact that both sides of my family were drastically different and my aunts, cousins, and uncles varied in different shades of brown.

All of my close friends have been in my life for years. My best friends are all people I met in grade school, going back as far as 3rd grade.

I think it's a beautiful thing how Hip Hop is received by the world.

Life would continue to exist and grow. Cause and effect still exist even where there is no time.

I think the world should be represented on television and for the longest its been limited. Ethnic stories specifically need variety in content period.

The telling of a good story, especially one that is real and true, is always exciting.

My ability to adapt has always stood out. I've been immersed in many worlds and have had the influence of many things in my upbringing so I'm familiar with so many styles of living, so many characters, so many life paths and its just easy to simulate for me.
