I’m originally from Arusha, Tanzania, a small town in East Africa.

What’s something fun or surprising about you?

A surprising thing about me is that I’m a writer and I love making and watching films! 

What is your favorite way to spend a day off?

An ideal day off for me has to include at least one of three things: plenty of rest, a great meal and exploring Seattle!

Favorite workout playlist or hype song?

My favorite hype song at the moment is Pour it Up by Rihanna, there’s something about her music that just energizes me every time.

Favorite restaurant in Seattle?

This is my favourite question. I wish I could choose one but I can’t so I will give my top three choices: Wally’s NW Soul, Costas in U district, and Menya Muso!

Dogs or cats?

Cats all the way! I would have about 3 myself if I wasn’t so allergic.
