Campaigns and shows: I did Caribbean Fashion Week 2004, a fashion show for Miss Marcia Nicely and I appeared in SHE Caribbean (magazine).
Campaign wishes: I want to model for Gucci, Gap.
What defines her as a model: I have a distinct look and I think that I am just waiting for my look to come along, because each year you have a distinct look that comes along...which is actually the Tyra Banks look.
Market best suited for: New York, that's where I would really like to go.
Perception of modelling: I think it involves determination; you have to be focused and have a great personality. Not everyone is going to like your look so you have to have a strong personality.
