This is the story of an immigrant, Wampa, a beautiful girl, passionate about the fashion industry and entertainment. She was sexually abused when she was five years old. Her mother was terrified about it and sent her to her aunty in order for Wampa to never know about it. But what Wampa’s mother didn’t know was Wampa was going to be mentally abused this time by her aunty, who made her do all the housekeeping such as cleaning, dishwashing, cooking, and working on the farm, while her cousins were playing, having fun, and studying their courses. Wampa had no time to study, to play. She was a lovely girl, kind, respectful, with such big ambitions. They kept telling her that she was so dumb in school, so her only place was in the kitchen working. She was frustrated to the point where her mother took her back a few years later. She was mistreated by her own family again because she used to fail many times in school. She did not have good grades in school like her siblings. After she finally obtained her high school diploma, at the same time her youngest brother did, her family decided to send her youngest brother to Europe to pursue his studies instead of her. They considered that since Wampa had failed too much, she cannot succeed in school as well as her brother would, or even in life. She needed to get married to someone before it would be too late for her. However, Wampa never gave up. She went to college and graduated in nursing four years later. She started to work at a hospital, at the same time working in the entertainment industry as an assistant event planner, hostess, and more. She was so passionate about the industry, but her family wanted her to consider it a hobby. Then she quit her work at the hospital to join an insurance company. After that she decided to move to the USA for to get more opportunities to be successful and have a better life. She also had hopes to pursue her dreams to become a successful actress in Hollywood despite the high number of talented, professional actresses present there. She is passionate, motivated, ambitious, courageous, strong, and willing to learn new things and grow. She likes taking care of herself and her family. She is so kind, you do not have to spend a year with her to learn that she is a nice person. She is friendly and has positive energy. She wants to inspire people around the world-not only in the USA or Africa, but around the world. She believes in herself and she does not let anyone intimidate her. After spending a year in the USA, she started to work as cook first at a restaurant, then in customer service at a university, and then a painter. Then she worked as a cashier for retail stores and went to school at the same time. Then she got acting jobs. She started as a background actress. After two years, she had done work as an extra in some movies and TV series like Lethal Weapon 3, Snowfall 3, Games People Play, Homeland SEASON 7, House of Cards Season 6, How to Get Away with Murder, and S.W.A.T. She also got modeling jobs with Vinichy Minion, Storyteller Boutique, and District Chic .She had been restricted from some kinds of jobs in the fashion industry because of her height, her social class, and her race. She had never been selected for a speaking role in small projects until she got that big opportunity in Hollywood, 'Best Screenwriter of the Year,' which was going to change her life forever. Then she ended up with an NBA player and had twin girls and one boy.
