How are you involved on campus? I am President of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc and Public Relations Exec. for the African Student Association.

Are you single? Yes.

Where would you want to be taken out on a date? I’m not sure, but I know for a first date, definitely not a dinner.

What is your dream job? Working for Save the Children, UNICEF, or the United Nations, anything that allows me to travel, and help.

Where is your favorite place to go in Tampa? I don’t really have one, but I love going to P.F Changs and Thai Thani for dinner.

What are three words to describe yourself? Social, genuine, and bubbly.

Who is your celebrity crush? Devon Still; he is a very admirable man.

If you could meet one person, who would it be? My maternal grandmother. I’ve heard so many good things about her and it sucks that she died before I could meet her.

What is one thing you could never live without? My family.

What do you miss about home while you are at school? Everything! My family, the culture, the atmosphere, the people, just the lifestyle in general.

What is your favorite song right now? Trap Queen

What has been your favorite UT memory? The day of my new member presentation for my sorority. A childhood friend drove to town to be here for it and another was in town from Canada. That was probably the happiest I’d been since I came here. It’s always good to know you have friends that will always have your back.
