Tell us about Yourself
I have been told I am a fighter because of having Sickle Cell Disease. I am a go-getter. If I want something in life, I am going to work hard to get it. I am also passionate at what I was blessed with which is writing. As an author of several books and a blogger, I find passion while doing it. I am also determined. Whatever goals I set for myself, I strive hard and motivate myself to reach my goals in life. Nothing shall stop me from dreaming.
