Miss Barbados

Nada Yearwood

Name one person, other than your parents, who has had the most influence on your life. Why?
My best friend Tracy. We have been friends for more than 10 years. My relationship with her has taught me to value family and friendship. She is a lighthouse in a storm and I feel as if I can be myself around her.

What is the most interesting or unique thing that has ever happened to you (aside from winning your title) and/or what is the most interesting thing about you?
The most interesting thing about me is that I am definitely a product of my environment. Coming from a small island has taught me to be in touch with my surroundings and respect the environment and to be very religious.

What is your career ambition and what are you doing or plan to do to accomplish that goal?
I am very interested in filmmaking. It is my intention to study screenplay writing, directing and producing at the end of my reign as Miss Barbados.

Describe where you were raised and what your childhood was like.
I have four siblings - two brothers and two sisters. The neighborhood in which I grew up was filled with other children my age, so after school we'd all get together and play games around the neighborhood. My parents are both God-fearing people and that was how I was raised. My mother is disabled and that also taught me how to be compassionate and be grateful for whatever I'm given in life.

List any interesting or unsual jobs you may have had.
She was a telephone operator and receptionist at a hotel when she was 16.

What is your most unusual talent?
My ability to make people feel comfortable around me.
