About the Author

"Born on the Caribbean island of Antigua and Barbuda, Tasheka worked as a Journalist, Event Host and TV News Anchor for ten years. She then went on to work for the World’s Leading Honeymoon Resort – Sandals, as the Public Relations Manager for Antigua. Tasheka is also the 2007 Miss Antigua and Barbuda and a proud graduate of the University of the West Indies, Mona campus in Jamaica. After coming out publicly as a lesbian, Tasheka was forced to leave her country of birth. Not one to get discouraged, Tasheka, who is now a resident of Canada, uses her platform as an LGBTQ Activist and Huffington Post/Youtube (Island Lez Talk) blogger to help make a difference in the lives of Caribbean LGBTQ members. Tasheka now carries the LGBTQ motto in her heart - #LoveWins, as she believes it is the simple solution to making this world a better place for every human being."
