The actress opened up with The Grio about her ethnicity saying, “I grew up in Vancouver which is beautiful but very Caucasian. When I moved to Toronto there were a lot more Black and mixed people. I have always had people who wanted to touch my hair and Black girls not accepting me because I’m too light-skinned to fit in with them and white girls who rejected me because I was different than them too…”

Now, she’s snagging major movie roles, which means she’s moving in the right direction.
