I didn’t grow up in New York, I grew up in Jamaica actually. Hearing where your family comes from and seeing where they actually come from are two different experiences. My humble beginnings have embedded gratitude within my heart. Growing up on the island was truly life-changing. Jamaica’s natural beauty is undeniable and our culture is so rich. I’m most at peace there. It’s my happy place.
