I am hoping to be able to lend my support to a Sickle Cell charity in the near future, as I want to try and help raise money and awareness about this disease.

I was self-conscious of being so lanky, of being me. I'd keep my head down, make excuses not to go out. I'd look in the mirror and hate myself. I thought I was disgusting. I cried constantly from 11 to 16. If I could tell my younger self anything, it would be to learn to love your flaws. It's OK to look in the mirror and feel really confident about yourself.

I am not big on jewelry, but I do love hats as an accessory, specifically snap backs and beanies.

I don't like to attach myself to material things.

My favourite types of cuisine are Asian and Caribbean, and I love cooking new recipes for my family.

I find it weird when [model] agents say, 'You're the only black girl booked for the show. Isn't it great?' Why is it great?
