Family is very important to me. We are originally from the beautiful twin island, Trinidad & Tobago. My dad is a Pastor for the past 10 years, he's a great father, dad, pastor and mentor, he migrated to the US first, then came my mom who is a beautician, but currently a HomeMaker and my sister who attends Queens Community College and works for Verizon. My brother and I came in 1991.
A small Testimony:
The 5 of us first lived in a basement that always flooded when it rained, then we moved to a 1 bedroom (mind you 5 of us lived there), also in that same apartment, my grandmotehr Eastlyn came to live there for a short time. We eventually started growing as the years went by, not only that, but we grew tired of the constant shootings and fires, so God blessed us with a 2 bedroom apartment. My brother joined the US Army and began his own life with his wife. In 2004 we bought a one family house, and here we are!
A God Blessed family, not a perfect family, but a great one!
Below you'll find photos of my family and some friends & loved ones I hold close to my heart. Those who aren't shown below, know that I love you*

Nidiya 'Pinkey' Rolle
Rest In Peace cousin Pinkey! No body knows how much I love and miss her. We connected in such a crazy way. I mean we didnt see eachother in years, but once we hooked up on Skype, it was like we were friends (not only cousins) forever. Pinkey and I developed a close relationship, so close that the day she died, we spoke and cracked quick jokes w/ Roy on the line...never thought that would've been our last conversation, Im just glad I had the opportunity to get to know her again!
