How did you figure out what your passion is?

I figured out my passion by serving humanity where I realize how much the society needed me.

What has been the most rewarding part of your journey so far?

The most rewarding aspect of my journey is getting to meet new people from different dimensions, learning different types of cultures and values, and being tolerant and accepting of people for who they are.

What else would you like to accomplish?

First of all, I will like to further my education. I currently have a bachelors in Peace and Conflict Resolutions. I also await what the Lord and the universe have to offer me.

What advice would you give to other young people beginning their careers?

My advice to young people is to be consistent in all that they do and they should do it with a passion and not because they see others doing it. They must know that in order to be successful you’ve got to be passionate and humble.

What does being a part of the African Diaspora mean to you?

First, I want to give God the glory for being included in FunTimes Magazine’s first edition of 2019. It makes me not to feel limited or restricted to just Liberia, but like a global citizen. Having such an opportunity to interact with people of multi dimension on this platform means a lot to me!
