My idea of a perfect day is coffee on one hand and a book on the other as Chimamanda transports me to a world where bold heroes have endearing flaws, women are stronger than they look, and chivalry is alive and well.
I believe in social change and brightening the corner where you are. One of my favorite quotes is by Thomas Sankara. “You cannot carry out fundamental change without a certain amount of madness. In this case, it comes from nonconformity, the courage to turn your back on the old formulas, the courage to invent the future.”I am a believer that the world is but a canvas to my imagination, and I intend to embellish and layer it with much color as I deem fit.
