My Brand in Three Words… Creative, Innovative and Fun

The Part of My Job I Enjoy Most…  Being behind the bar with my cocktail shaker and getting to meet new people especially other event vendors.

Best Vendor I have Worked With…  Worked with quite a few vendors and they have all being amazing but I still revere Brad_E Events because of her humility, dedication and creativity.

Qualities Every Nigerian Vendor Must Possess: Patience, Professionalism and Uniqueness. These three go hand-in-hand and one cannot do without the other. Patience because you deal with different individuals on a daily basis; professionalism and uniqueness because they help you stand out every step of the way.

In my spare time, I play scrabble, read novels and of course re-create new cocktails

Interesting Fact about me… I love cartoons, I fantasize about an happily ever after Disney wedding (lol), I love to sing (with my horrible voice) and I love rap music

Books I’m Currently Reading… Just concluded “The Villa” by Nora Roberts. I’m currently reading “Honor thyself” by Danielle Steel

Call or Text… Both depending on my mood and the reason

Cook or be Cooked For? Definitely Cooked for

Favorite Food… More of a junk food person but my love for Sour garri, Cold water and Spiced meat cannot be over emphasized.

Ideal Holiday Destination… Paris(hope to go there soon) and Dubai
