The first photo shows the two sports that are my life. The two sports that helped me found my identity and voice in this unfamiliar world. I am an athlete. My two favorite sports are track and field and basketball. I started playing basketball when I first came to this country and fell in love. It helped me adapt and made new friends in and out of school. I fell in love with track the freshmen year of my high school and competed all four years. I started off not knowing anything about the sport and worked my way up to become top 5 distance and mid distance runner in the city and the borough of Manhattan. I was named MVP scholar athlete for the borough and I am also a 3x borough champion and 2x city champion.

The second photo shows my love for fashion. I am love to dress, whether it’s the dapper look, the casual, the athlete look, classy look, formal, it could be anything I could switch it up. I love to express my self through fashion, cause it makes me feel good. I am also part of a clothing line called “Fruition”.

The third photo shows that I am a quote lover. I love quotes and love to come up with my own. I like to motivate and inspire people because I like the role. I also love quotes because whenever I feel like giving up I just have to read a few quotes and realize what I am doing. I love the inspirational stuff because it what makes me who I am today. If it weren’t for these quotes from a few major people in my life, it would be totally different.

The fourth photo shows that I love music. Music is that one thing I can’t get rid of. Music calms and soothes me. I love almost any genre, but I mostly listen to hip-hop, dancehall, Indian, r&b, soca, and my cultural music.

The fifth photo shows that I love food. I mean who doesn’t. I love any kind of food. Except I have a few restrictions because of my religion. I am a Hindu, so I cant eat beef and pork. But other than that I eat almost anything other than those two. My favorite food is curry chicken.

The sixth photo shows who I am. I am a born and raised Guyanese. I was born there and lived 10 years of my life there before migrating to the U.S. I love my country and culture and I rep it everyday. I am a proud Guyanese.

The seventh photo shows that I am a very ambitious individual. I always try and reach for the stars. I always push my self to give a 100% no matter in. I understand that the path to success is not straight and that’s why I never give up. If I want something I go work for it.

The last photo shows that I am adventurous and love to travel. I love to explore new places and go visit new sites and countries. I have not traveled the world yet but one day I will. One of my dream places to travel to is Panama and Italy. I have only traveled to a few places; I went to the Bahamas, Trinidad, Guyana, Canada, Florida, Suriname, and Oklahoma. I have also visited a few interested sites.
