“Ties that Bind tells the story of 3 women (Adobea, Buki and Theresa)  from different walks of life, bound together by a similar pain; the loss of a child. In a destined meeting, in a small village, the women journey together to redemption, love, life and forgiveness as they renovate a dilapidated clinic for the villagers.”

What do you love about what you do? Who do you admire who also seems to love this or is an example of what you love?

I love being able to make people smile whilst performing or teaching, weather its sharing my ideas or performing them myself. So the element of sharing is what i love best about this profession. I think you can guess by know that i am very passionate about the African media industry, one actress who definitely uses the element of sharing is a nigerian actress named funk kindle, i remember listening to a radio interview were she spoke about her performing academy and its way of giving back and helping nurture young performers, this is something i would love to do in the future.
