I am a unique combination of two distinct cultures. My name means “First Daughter” and my parents hail from Sierra Leone, West Africa. I learned at an early age how to exist in two completely different worlds at the same time. This means I learned how to say what needed to be said, to who and when!

My passion for writing has always stirred in me for as long as I can remember. Many days consisted of skipping out on playing outside with the neighborhood kids; instead, I sat on the floor of my bedroom creating characters on paper and scribbling my thoughts on the latest news story. Now as an author, I use creative writing to get important messages across to my audience in diverse ways.

Please stay tuned for my first novel, The Mango Tree Shade! In the meantime, I am my freelance journey touches on all things wellness, including birdwatching.  I am also working on short stories that touch on so many topics about lived experiences of those near and dear to me. Check out The Grandparents, featured in Brittle Paper Magazine. 🙂
