  The hardest thing I have ever done was take a Ball Room Dancing Class. Seriously!!! It is a lot of fun but a little more complected than it looks.

• Favourite books/authors/films

  My favourite book is Long Walk To Freedom by Nelson Mandela. One of my favorite films is, "don't laugh" but Up the animated film has some deep messages. The main character learned that people and not things were important.

• Living abroad for one year

  If I could live abroad for one year I would go to Ghana in Africa. It is a beautiful country with a rich history and lovely people. I like to cook and their food is amazing. I would also like to visit Canada.

  Since my parents generation, information sharing has improved. We now have knowledge and information at our finger tips.

  I wish people would understand more how to treat people. People are treated in a very unkind manner far to often.

• As a child, I wish...

  I would change the schools I attended. They did little to expand your mind as a child.

  Hum I would have to think about this question as I try not to dwell on the past or things that may not have gone my way.

• Improving the school system

  I wish that Black History was taught in schools. I mean the truth Black History.

• Something to tell the world!

  I would like to tell the world that life is not a game or a dress rehearsal. We need to do better because some mistakes are being made that would take a long time to correct. For example climate change is out of control.

• Over or underrated

  The importance of an Academic education that is not balanced with life skills is definitely overrated.

  I visited Miami, Bahamas, USVI, Tobago and Barbados. Would love to do way more traveling.
