Amanda is from Haiti, and was living in Queens, New York at the time of her interview. Her days were spent “working in an OB-GYN office…and applying to graduate schools.”

Amanda’s Most Likely To Is: "Most Likely to Empower Black Women…hopefully sooner than later"

We talked about the benefits of being multi-lingual (Kreyol, English, French). Amanda shared about her experience of being a young, Black, American woman in Europe, and about what it takes to truly appreciate Paris.

Amanda spoke about some of the women who inspire her, reflected on the ways her priorities have changed over the past few years, and recounted the period in her life when empowering young Black girls became a goal for her.
