What do you like most about your job?
The people. Everybody is friendly, upbeat, positive, they make work fun. Everybody’s just great here.
What is your dream job?
I would have to say a forensic psychologist. When Criminal Minds first came out I got into it and ever since then I’ve been interested in doing that kind of work. I like the part where you have to think like a criminal to catch a criminal. Knowing what makes people tick.
What sort of activities do you like to do around the community?
I like to go swimming, that’s pretty well the only activity I do regularly. I sometimes go up to the museum for hikes or walks.
What are your top three travel destinations?
I would love to go back to Jamaica because of the beauty of it and the people. The United Kingdom because my mom’s side of the family came from there so I’ve been interested to see where my family comes from. And Japan because my uncle lives there so I’d like to visit them. He’s an English teacher.
What do you like to do while on vacation?
Relax. Depending where I am I’ll go on tours. When I was in Jamaica we did zip lining and bobsledding.
If you had to choose one food to eat for the rest of your life what would it be?
That’s a hard one. Chicken — any kind.
If you could hang out with anyone dead or alive, who would it be?
My grandparents just so I could have one last conversation with them and tell them how much I’ve missed them and tell them things that have happened with my life.
What is your favourite movie?
Enough with Jennifer Lopez. She meets this guy and then they become a happy family, she finds out he’s a cheater and he beats her, she runs away with the kid and eventually finds the courage to go after him and kill him.
If you were making a movie about you, which actor or actress would play you?
Melissa McCarthy because I relate so well to her acting and her humour and doing stupid stuff.
What are some wise words of wisdom for everybody?
Don’t let others control who you are, do your own thing and make yourself happy and the rest will come.
