Overview
SHORT BIO
I was born on the 3rd of July in Yaoundé, the Capital of Cameroon. I attended Nursery and Primary School in Yaoundé. It was an amazing experience growing up to speak French and English in Cameroon. I graduated from Primary school with an FSLC certificate, and moved to the North West Province to attend Secondary School. This was an American equivalence of high School. I spent most of my holidays traveling from Cameroon to the U.S.A and Europe. I was mostly always fascinated fashion and film culture. As an American citizen growing up in Cameroon and travelling a lot, I became familiar with lots of cultures and lifestyles.
After I had my GCE certificate from Secondary School (High School Diploma Equivalent), I moved to the U.S.A. I enrolled at El Camino College and began college. I also did several courses at California State University Chico. In the United States I began to pursue my dream of becoming a model/actor.
I have always taken a deep interest in fashion and entertainment as a whole. It is my top preoccupation and hobby. I enjoy exploring new products and engaging myself into using and sharing information about them. I’ve always been great at interacting with people. I enjoy playing soccer, doing gymnastics and hanging out with friends.
