I'm pretty awesome at making salad dressings.

It doesn't escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else's.

You can't eat beauty, it doesn't sustain you. What is fundamentally beautiful is compassion, for yourself and those around you. That kind of beauty inflamed the heart and merchants the soul.

With success comes more responsibility, a larger size of existence, which is uncomfortable.

Happiness is the most important thing.

I definitely intend to create my own work in the future so that we don't have to keep saying we don't have work for black women. But right now I don't know what's next. I hope that there are more opportunities to come my way.

I feel privileged that people are looking up to me and perhaps a dream will be born because of my presence.
