Hi everyone! I’m Andromeda, and I have quite the colorful upbringing which I think tracks, as I’m a very excitable person! I'm first generation Ghanaian, Indigenous-American, and more born and raised in the US in New England. I lived in places that are considered small, where you could spend 30 minutes talking to a stranger about how much snow we’re having. My family, throughout my entire childhood emphasized the importance of education but also chasing my joy and seeking fulfilment in whichever path I choose. My inheritance from my childhood is my lifelong of learning, whether I’d cuddle up to a good book, explore nature outside all day, or study classic theatrical films learning all of the songs and lines of each performer. Having one parent as a multi-racial mental health nurse and lifecoach and the other as a Ghanaian highlife musician, my interests reflected my parentage. I studied theatre and psychology in undergraduate university, performing in 2-3 productions a year from age 10 until I obtained my master’s degree in social work becoming a therapist, while also modeling part-time starting at just 16. I’ve always been a creative and an intellect … very left and right-brained.

Growing up in a fusion of cultures, peaked my curiosity in wanting to learn so much about the world, to hear other languages, and experience different foods. I’ve always felt so proud of my roots - my name, our languages - our clothing - our customs. I was often befriending kids from other countries, from as young as 4 years old, visiting their families, and tasting delicious global cuisines. In school from middle school through University, I loved being involved in community from joining the multicultural club, student government, theatre (of course), talent shows every year, being co-captain of the dance team, cheerleading, track, lacrosse, basketball, school chorus, and studying martial arts outside of school at all women’s dojo exposing me to women empowerment at a very young and mindfulness practices such as meditation, breathwork, and reiki. By 15 years old, I was leading guided meditations in class and even led one at our women’s martial arts conference with hundreds of women from all over the world.
