1.What is 1 beauty product you cannot live without?
Kimi's Skin electric facial cleansing brush is my ultimate beauty essential. It removes impurities from deep within pores, reducing the likelihood of breakouts. Moreover, it offers a luxurious face massage that improves microcirculation, resulting in a brighter and healthier complexion. The ultra-soft silicone touchpoints gently exfoliate dead skin cells without causing any harsh abrasion. I strongly believe in the connection between self-care and mental health, making this beauty tool even more important to me.

2.If you had to do over anything what would it be?
If given the chance to redo something, I would have begun therapy earlier upon moving to the United States from Africa a decade ago and dealing with anxiety and depression due to cultural differences. Seeking professional help sooner could have potentially eased my struggles, aided in better management of these conditions, and fostered a healthier sense of well-being. Taking proactive steps towards my mental health earlier on would have likely made a significant positive impact on my overall life in the United States.

3.Who would you love to meet and why?
I would absolutely love the opportunity to meet Mariah Carey due to her immense contributions to the music industry and her charitable efforts. I greatly admire her openness and vulnerability in discussing her own mental health struggles, as well as her dedication to empowering and inspiring the younger generation. Mariah's music has had a profound impact on me, and I aspire to have a similar impact on others through my own story.

4.Favorite vacation?
The Cayman Islands' vibrant arts scene offers a range of creative expression, from stunning landscape paintings to exquisite ceramics and jewelry. As The Culinary Capital of the Caribbean, it is a foodie paradise with a wide variety of culinary delights to indulge in. The Cayman Islands are also famous for their pristine beaches, where spending time can have a calming and relaxing effect on the mind, reducing anxiety and nervous system arousal. It's truly a paradise for art lovers, foodies, and beachgoers alike.

5.What do you normally eat for breakfast?
Starting the day off right with a delicious breakfast is important to me. My ideal breakfast consists of a steaming cup of tea with a splash of lemon. On the plate, I like to have a side of seasoned potatoes or crispy hashbrowns. But the star of the show is definitely the scrambled eggs cooked with a medley of onions, bell peppers, spicy jalapeños, and a generous sprinkle of cheesy goodness. It's the perfect combination to fuel my day ahead.
