Annie Ilonzeh

I feel like decades ago it was either you're black, white, Asian or Hispanic, or whatever, but today we see more of an acceptance for people with multi-nationalities.

I come from an interracial family: My father is from Nigeria, and so he is African-American, and my mother is American and white, so I rarely see skin color. It's never an issue for me.

I relate to both my Caucasian side and my African side, and I love that.

High heels were invented by a woman who had been kissed on the forehead.

It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.

I love accessorizing with jewelry.
