Q Describe what you do in one<br />
sentence.<br />
I shine light on others aiming to inspire, uplift and<br />
create humor through art forms of being a TV host<br />
personality and actress.<br />
Q How would you describe your<br />
fashion style?<br />
You caught me at the perfect time. I’m actually<br />
defining my personal style right now. As a kid,<br />
I got hand me downs from my big brother and<br />
it usually looked like boys cargo pants. Now<br />
I’m entering a new phase of life where I love a<br />
comfortable, classy, beachy style.<br />
But frankly, in my perfect world, I would never<br />
want to wear the same outfit twice. I am always on<br />
the lookout for new trends and designers because<br />
I am so attracted to what is fresh and unique. My<br />
style comes down to expressing what I am feeling<br />
moment by moment and, like many women, that<br />
is changing constantly!<br />
Q Favorite designers?<br />
What’s been catching my eye on the runway lately<br />
is Sachika Twins, YOZE, Altaf Maneshia, and<br />
Alexander McQueen. My attitude is open and<br />
soulful right now where I see beauty all around me.<br />
<strong>The</strong> designers that catch my attention usually touch<br />
me with a positive, bright, and subtly sexy energy.<br />
Q What’s your superpower or what’s<br />
your spirit animal?<br />
My superpower is the ability to see real visions.<br />
I’ll see a vision in my mind’s eye and often it<br />
will be manifested. It takes a lot of concentration<br />
and discipline to get connected to my higher<br />
consciousness, but it’s worth it when I do tap into<br />
it. <strong>The</strong> results, well that’s a longer interview to be<br />
shared in a more intimate time setting. I’ve got<br />
stories. My favorite moments are when I’ll get<br />
receive a vision for someone else and it blesses them<br />
in a special way.<br />
My spirit animal is the enchanted unicorn, flying,<br />
jubilant and vibrant.<br />
