Bio

My goal in life is that I become the first Afro-Haitian to serve on the Supreme Court; I wish to learn and look forward to are being able to participate in future studies that would increase my knowledge and obtain new skills. It is through my determination that I be able to soar higher depths and amplify my zeal to demonstrate ways in which I could better assist others. In earning my Law degree through leadership and my hard work and dedication it would establish the platform to enhance and empower my ability to become a successful leader in society. I am most passionate about individuals being treated with fairness, honesty, and respect; no one should be treated differently based on the color of their skin tone, the shape of their body, whether they choose to live their lives as a male or female, their ethnicity, choice of religion, or their financial status. I am a great person because I am a good communicator which makes it easy for me to be able to empathize with and relate to other individuals, as well as a good listener. I strive to give respect to all people no matter what their ethnicity, background, or religion may be; by being kind. Experience from interacting with the public within the fast-food industry has allowed me to be able to have a positive attitude while serving others. I can pre-plan and organize study skills to experience and obtain a successful learning environment; therefore, to prioritize, complete assignments be effective in time management, and take initiative to request help as needed; to be able to maintain passing grades.

      I am an outgoing good communicator as well as a good listener which makes it easy for me to be able to empathize with and relate to other individuals. I strive to give respect and be kind to all people no matter what their ethnicity, background, or religion may be. Experience interacting with the public within the fast-food industry has allowed me to be able to build and have a positive attitude while serving others. My father was sentenced and incarcerated when my mother discovered that she was three months pregnant; he was later released. While I was in the first grade however he was rearrested and had to serve another ten years in prison being released again during the year 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic I was in the tenth grade. Although, we did not have the opportunity to get to know one another personally we often communicated through limited and timed telephone calls along with letters where we corresponded with each other regularly. Thankfully, the impact that it has had on me and the fact that the other male figures in my family that stepped up to the plate such as my grandfathers, uncles, and cousins; have allowed me to know and understand the importance of having a male present to increase better and healthier male relationships, which increased my self-esteem, confidence, learning abilities, and have less psychological stress, and more laughter. I believe that this has given me more motivation to strive to learn; earning my Law degree through leadership and my hard work and dedication it would establish the platform to enhance and empower my ability to become a successful leader in society and demonstrate ways in which I could better assist others in obtaining better lives. In pursuing further education with determination; I will be the first of my family to go to college and earn a Law degree my goal in life is that - I become the first Afro-Haitian to serve on the Supreme Court of Justice. I wish to learn and look forward to being able to participate in future studies that would increase my knowledge and obtain new skills. I intend to pre-plan and organize study skills to experience and obtain a successful learning environment; therefore, to prioritize, complete assignments be effective in time management, and take initiative to request help as needed; to be able to maintain passing grades.

      My father was sentenced and incarcerated when my mother discovered that she was three months pregnant; he was later released. While I was in the first grade however he was rearrested and had to serve another ten years in prison being released again during the year 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic I was in the tenth grade. Although, we did not have the opportunity to get to know one another personally we often communicated through limited and timed telephone calls along with letters where we corresponded with each other regularly. However, the two of us have never been able to obtain or retain a healthy father-daughter relationship; for my 17th birthday, I requested a dinner date with him as a way for the two of us to begin to build what I had hoped could be a door opener for us to connect. Dinner was successful and the food was delicious, and we were able to establish a starting point; needless to say that the experience of not having a caring father who was present in my life while growing up to provide and show love, affection, communication towards his daughter has left a void. Thankfully, the impact that it has had on me and the fact that the other male figures in my family that stepped up to the plate such as my grandfathers, uncles, and cousins; have allowed me to know and understand the importance of having a male present to increase better and healthier male relationships, which increased my self-esteem, confidence, learning abilities, and have less psychological stress, and more laughter. I believe that this has given me more motivation to strive to learn; earning my Law degree through leadership and my hard work and dedication it would establish the platform to enhance and empower my ability to become a successful leader in society and demonstrate ways in which I could better assist others.
