- The Haitian culture influences me in many ways. I was raised in a very strict household and growing with Haitian parents there are certain things that I couldn’t do that my other friends were doing such as sleepovers or watching tv on a school night. I didn’t understand it then, but looking back it gave me a lot of discipline, and structure.

What has been the respond of the Haitian American community to you and your title?

- One of the talent or skill most people would be surprised to learn about me is probably the fact that I love doing hair; braiding, cut and color, you name it! I also played violin in my adolescent yrs, and I am much more of a sweatpants and sneakers type of girl.
