Rachel O. Jean-Baptiste Kehinde

Brooklyn, New York.

Traveling and learning more beyond walls and gates are what interest me. I love to absorb and experience life's adventures.

Currently I am a senior in college with a focus to gain a better sense of internatioanl relaions and history as I continue my passion in writing. The way literature is able to personify the lives and stories of our past fasinates me. It is the root of my love for writing.

Joing words to make a story has always been a hobby of mine. Without hesitation, my hands tend to reach for the nearest utensil to write with- this way, no one is able to interrupt my thoughts. The feeling of satisfaction overwhelms me when my right hand is stabbed with a feeling of pain after hours of writing. Why say a word if my hands are able to articulate my thoughts?

Other interests: I enjoy yoga. Creating music is something I take joy in doing as a percussionist- piano, marimba, drums- and a self-taught guitarist. White-pomegranate tea has now become my favorite drink.
