She has stated :
I’m so blessed to have been growing up in a household where there’s so many different cultures. My dad is Ghanaian, so I’m really connected to my West African heritage. My mom is Swiss and Italian. I learned a lot about those cultures because we spent almost every summer in Italy. I feel like it broadens me and I have a bigger understanding of the world.
