I surround myself with strong willed, courageous personalities, because I've got to be coached by the best.

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

Most people have no idea what Cabo Verde is or even where it is to mention, so I definitely want to make people aware of this beautiful culture.

I acknowledge my beauty and my flaws, I do my best to keep it one hundred with the woman in the mirror so making friends is actually easy.

When the passion isn't there, the drive isn't there and it just doesn't last for me.

I'm just vibrant. I try to bring that to everything I do.

I was drawn into acting due to the fact that I could express myself better. I could use my voice - my entire body - not just my looks, height, and physical expressions.
